He talks with Duncan Humm from NZ Farming about its role in a recent survey which reveals many farmers are rejecting NZ's current ruminant methane strategy, why this is the case and what they'd like to see happen as a result... And he talks with Lester White, Chair of Proprietors of Tawapata South, about its farm, Onenui Station on Mahia Peninsula, being named as a finalist in the 2025 Ahuwhenua Trophy and its partnership with Rocket Lab.
