Today on The Country, chief financial officer for Pāmu Farms of New Zealand (Landcorp), Steve McJorrow spoke to Jamie Mackay about the company's half-year result to December 31 2017.

Mackay comments that Landcorp has had a "soft result," but McJorrow is not disappointed, saying there were "some really testing climatic conditions."

"We had a really wet spring followed by an incredibly difficult drought. What that meant for us was that some of our on-farm costs responded to that."

Also in today's interview - Steve McJorrow talks to Jamie Mackay about a change of policy regarding the sale of Landcorp properties.
