  • AgriHQ senior analyst Suz Bremner joins the show to talk about the latest sale yard news. She says drought and access to feed is influencing some buying decisions, but prices are still strong across the country.
  • Visiting Nuffield scholar Wilco Brouwer de Koning tells Bryan about life as a Dutch dairy farmer and says they’re facing the same regulatory and market-driven challenges we face in New Zealand. Wilko is researching how a biodiversity credit system might work to reward farmers and says transparency of data is the key to success.F
  • ederated Farmers Southland’s Dean Rabbidge says whole-farm forestry conversions are still occurring down south and he wants some answers from the government. The Prime Minister told farmers in Gore last year the practice would end, but Dean says there appears to be a loophole.
