In this week’s “Opinion Maker” show of Sarah’s Country:

In 2014, the Government estimated the primary sector would need to employ another 50,000 people by 2030. With the labour shortages we are currently experiencing, how broken is the education system that we still haven’t attracted and retained the skills we need?

Featuring Federated Farmers skills and training spokesperson William Beetham and Dairy Training manager Cath Blake.

Panel guests include WOMOlife Managing Director, Alister Shennan, and Shearing Contractors Association Chief Executive, Phil Holden.
