Fire and Emergency New Zealand crews are battling a forestry equipment fire in North Otago.
Firefighters were called to the scene in Aitchison Rd, near Georgetown, at 8.05am today after reports that machinery was on fire in a farm paddock.
A spokesman said crews from Duntroon and Oamaru and a tanker from Glenavy found a logging digger fully alight.
Crews were working to extinguish the blaze.
The fire was not near a forestry block, the spokesman said.
There were no injuries to report and it was too early to know the full extent of the damage, he said.
