Today on The Country radio show, host Jamie Mackay catches up with the former president of Federated Farmers, Katie Milne, to get her thoughts on the Paris Agreement and climate change.
On with the show:
Katie Milne:
The former President of Federated Farmers talks about drought (really?) on the West Coast, feeding out in summer, and whether this is Climate Change in action.
As for the Paris Climate Accord; in or out?
And what interest in farm sales is there on the Coast?
Peter Newbold:
How much is your farm worth?
Are farmers sitting on them, banking the returns, rather than selling them?
We take our monthly look at the state of the rural market with the general manager of PGG Wrightson Real Estate.

In short, it is massive and the stats are mind-blowing.
More than 10 million delivery riders fulfil an average of 80 million orders daily for 545 million users.
The sector is valued at 1.2 trillion yuan ($156 billion), with consumers spending nearly 3.3 billion yuan daily on food delivery.
Cameron Henderson:
We catch up with the deputy chair of DairyNZ on a consultation roadshow in Southland.
