Welcome to another episode of Sarah’s Country. Sarah is joined again by four great guests to talk about the matters that matter most.
Recently farm incidents have prompted Jo Pugh from WorkSafe New Zealand to remind the farming community to be vigilant about on-farm safety over the winter months with a rise in hazards with a lot of new staff coming into an industry they haven't worked in before.
She believes this government is hellbent on a particular outcome, a willingness to fund what-ever resources are needed to get it and an inability to foresee the likely result. East Coast farmer, Kerry Worsnop, will share her views on foresters receiving government-backed guaranteed income irrespective of their silvicultural practices or market prices for wood products.
Drought, forestry conversion & the easier cashflow of trading lambs is having a big dent in our breeding ewe numbers. Agrihq analyst, Suz Bremner, joins us for a market update after Temuka had their second-largest store lamb sale on AgriHQ records at 11,500.
Professor Richard McDowell, Our Land and Water chief scientist, believes water quality needs to work in with the Carbon Zero act otherwise actions on-farm could be antagonistic. He discusses his paper published in Nature’s Scientific Reports that provides the first global analysis of freshwater quality.
