Te Radar joins us, fully wired and caffeinated to share some incredible developments about the future of farming. Radar is a NZ broadcasting icon and has been making TV and radio programmes for decades about sustainability and our relationship to the environment. He comes from a farming family and has travelled the world meeting agriculturalists from all over the planet who are doing things differently. We discuss the difficulties of treating trees as a total solution for offsetting carbon, moving people from a free hold mentality regarding land to a lease hold mentality (nature being the leaseholder) and much more. Radar also shares his optimism about the future, the younger generation and vertical farming.
