New Zealand Apples and Pears says trading with India is about getting money back in the pockets of growers. 

Sign off on the Free Trade Agreement is still making its way through Parliament, but Prime Minister Christopher Luxon says exporters are already laying the groundwork.  

India's grown from being our seventh largest market for apples, to the fourth – and the number of Indian tourists is also up. 

Apples and Pears CEO Danielle Adsett told Mike Hosking it's important to start allocating some quota towards the Indian market. 

She says exports have increased in anticipation of the agreement, and the industry is excited for the season ahead. 

Adsett told Hosking the agreement's potential is untold, but growth should continue.

The Media Minister believes it's important to watch the moves made by Australia in its new deal with Microsoft. 

An agreement's been made between Microsoft and the media company Nine. 

It'll see the tech giant pay to reference journalists' work from its masthead content, including the Sydney Morning Herald and the Financial Review. 

Paul Goldsmith told Mike Hosking the first point of call for Kiwi businesses is to talk to each other. 

He says we can learn from Australia's approaches, see what works, and shamelessly borrow what works well. 

Goldsmith says New Zealand media companies should be hustling similar deals, and if that doesn't work, the Government could get involved down the track.

Tech New Zealand is trying to dispel fears about bringing more data centres here. 

Crown agency Invest New Zealand is looking to attract up to $30 billion in offshore investment in the centres, over five years.  

We already have 56 of the facilities here – using around 0.6% of our total power. 

Tech New Zealand Chief Executive Graeme Muller told Mike Hosking he hates hearing that data centres use a lot of water. 

He says it's an American issue with old centres, suggesting the new facilities like those built in Auckland using less water than the average dairy farm. 

Muller is also assuring that lots of jobs will be created by bringing new data centres here. 

Invest New Zealand claims the centres could employ up to three and a half thousand people, but local industry advocate Don Christie says the centres are largely automated and only employ a few people. 

Muller argues the new data centre being built in Southland is creating a lot of jobs – he says it's going to create more construction jobs over the next decade than the City Rail Link, and create 220 fulltime positions.
