Yes N.Z. has glourious pasture farming both hill and flat. However we get our fair share of droughts some so bad depending where you live we get water shortages.It recently snowed heavily here hasn't done that for more then 40years.I'd love to be in the great state of Texas during twister season though so swapping places would be great.just not sure about those wicked highs you have in summer lol I thought that 34 was hot wow you've got nothing on us temp wise thats for sure
