7) "What is a 'Lifestyle Block' and is it a Form of 'Rural Gentrification'?" by John Paterson - A Paper presented to the Waikato Branch of the New Zealand Geographical Society in 2005. It examines the recent boom in rural smallholdings in NZ and the diversity of people to be found on them. "Gentrification" involves the development of the countryside through the intensive development and enrichment of the rural environment by an urban-linked population. Part of this is a growing interest in heritage livestock breeds, including Dexters. The result is a view of the countryside in conflict with the dominant "productivist" values of large-scale agriculture which is focused on maximising production.

"As there is much information widely available about traditional dairying and dairy breeds, I thought it would be fun to share information on 'part-time' milking."
