They also discuss how the problem is getting worse, despite farmers spending more money and effort controlling pests, and the need for a coordinated response across public and private land... And he talks with Henry Cassin from Trade Depot about the rise in solar uptake across NZ, the opportunities for rural households and farm infrastructure and the latest solar innovations hitting the market.
