The 2023 New Zealand general election showcased a shift in voting patterns, with a decline in the National Party's influence and a rise in support for the ACT party, according to Professor Hugh Campbell Professor of Sociology at the University of Otago.



Editor of Country-Wide, Rebecca Greaves, covers the frustration of farming regulations that have led to this swing to the far-right with Hugh, but also the surprising split to the left parties in rural New Zealand.



Farmers are frustrated with the complexity and cost of farming regulations, and Brent Paterson of My Enviro discusses with co-host Sarah Perriam-Lampp (Managing Director of CountryWide Media) that farmers want a value-added proposition around farm planning that helps them protect and promote their environmental position.



The new Minister for Primary Industries & Trade, Hon. Todd McClay, explains to Rebecca Greaves how the new government aims to simplify rules and regulations, focused on outcomes rather than processes, and wants to build trust with farmers to allow farmers to get on with farming. Collaboration among associate ministers from the coalition government is important for effective governance and representation of the sector.

He explains how trade and market access are crucial for the success of New Zealand's primary sector.

Word from our Sponsor:

Over time, the regulations and requirements imposed on farmers have undergone a significant transformation, shifting from traditional analogue plans consisting of large printed documents to streamlined digital plans that offer increased efficiency, detail, and adaptability.

By utilising digital solutions like MyEnviro, farmers can now create living documents that evolve with on-farm changes, ensuring that their environmental plans remain accurate, up-to-date, and reflective of the current practices and conditions.
