Description:

Welcome to another episode of Sarah’s Country. Sarah is joined again by four great guests to talk about the matters that matter most.

Financial institutions are becoming increasingly cautious about farm lending so why not try leasing your dairy herd? StockCo general manager Will Purvis joins us to discuss how farmers can tap into a $1 billion fund.

Foreign wool buyers are threatening to walk away from contracts with New Zealand exporters as they fight to survive the global coronavirus lockdown. Masurel Fils managing director Peter Whiteman will discuss the massive challenges the wool industry faces post-covid.

The sale yards have reopened under level two, clearing a backlog of store and prime stock. However, the lockdown saw the rise of online trading platforms. StockX managing director Jason Roebuck will talk us through the market dynamics of online trading behaviours.

Northland has experienced the worst drought in generations. Kaipara Mayor Dr Jason Smith shares the situation and his frustrations with the shovel-ready infrastructure projects not happening quickly enough.
