EP 50 | This week we are joined by Wilco Brouwer de Koning bringing us the Dutch perspectives and filling us in on what they are facing in the Ag industry on that side of the globe. Safe to say we both learnt a lot!

We also discuss Wilco's amazing farm...right in the heart of a 'Village' the size of Queenstown!

Wilco is also heading our way soon for his Nuffield, let us know if you have any contacts for him, discussing the topic of Bio-diversity on farm.

043 | With December around the corner and Christmas on our doorstep we asked the question - what is the actual impact of our sneaky (sometimes guilty) Temu purchases on the small business landscape of NZ, particularly rural NZ?

We also covered off Fonterra's latest happenings - rising milk prices and what's happening with the consumer brands and back over to banking - the wild profits coming out of the big banks!!
