EP 123 | Rugby chat with a side order of budget!

This week on Ag in Conversation, we kick things off with a chat about rugby, the Crusaders, and the excitement surrounding Christchurch's new stadium before turning our attention to the issues shaping rural New Zealand. We unpack what the 2026 Budget means for farmers, explore the latest dairy payout forecasts, and discuss why many arable growers are facing a particularly challenging season. We also head to the United States to examine an innovative new initiative designed to improve access to protein for vulnerable communities and what it could mean for agriculture's future. Plenty of insight, perspective, and good conversation from New Zealand and beyond.

Big thanks to our partners Cinta Insights and Ag Assist for supporting our podcast.
