The Burke brothers – John and Rick – were named Cawthron Freshwater Champions at an awards ceremony in Wellington last week. The twins have spent almost 30 years turning their Kati Kati farm into an environmental exemplar. Rick told Bryan about their journey and the importance their catchment group had in helping them.
 
Federated Farmers Southland president Jason Herrick also gives an update on how changes to immigration laws impact farmers. After initial reservations, he says the amendments to the Accredited Employer Work Visa are good for farmers, but only if the paperwork is done correctly.

And, senior reporters Richard Rennie and Neal Wallace join Bryan to talk about Fonterra’s latest milk price forecasts, the frustration at the slow progress of methane inhibitors through the regulatory system and the state of sheep and beef farmer finances.
