In this week’s Change Maker show of Sarah’s Country:

How is New Zealand’s horticulture technology placed internationally and what are some of the major scientific challenges technology can help solve into the future? 

PlantTech Research Director Ian Yule explains.

Jars of NZ-made honey with a unique manuka factor (UMF) of 33 have been selling for almost $5000 in the UK.  True Honey Chief Executive, Jim McMillan, shares why it’s some of the highest valued Manuka honey ever produced.

NZ farmers are continuing to look for ways to ensure the environmental, economic and social wellbeing of their communities. Taranaki Catchment Communities Chair, Donna Cram, shares how they are making a difference.

Consumer habits have changed due to covid-19, with a focus increasingly on buying local, so how can NZ exporters to the US compete against this trend?

Green Purse Chief Executive, Lisa Mabe-Konstantopoulos, explains what US consumers’ perception of NZ is post-covid.
