Pressure on the Government to get an upcoming probe into forestry slash wrapped up as early as possible.

Prime Minister Chris Hipkins is expected to announce the inquiry during a visit to Hawke's Bay today.

It's expected to take two months, but Federated Farmers wants it done sooner as weather events become more frequent.

Spokesperson Toby Williams told Kate Hawkesby we've needed solutions for a long time.

He says Tolaga Bay in 2018 should've been our wake up call, and with hail and Cyclone Gabrielle within a month - they need to move quickly.
