To kick off the new Federated Farmers Podcast, we hear from national president Wayne Langford, who discusses his journey from Golden Bay dairy farmer to taking the helm at Feds. 

Wayne reflects on recent policy wins for farmers, challenges faced, and outlines his strong vision for a united agricultural sector over the next two-and-a-half years.

He also discusses his commitment to agricultural advocacy, his involvement in initiatives like Meet the Need charity, and his personal mental health journey shared as the YOLO farmer.
