	Description:		Happy hump day! We’re half way through the week and Sarah is here with another episode of Sarah’s Country. With a surge in consumer demand for honey to boost immunity, covid-19 has been a sweet surprise for honey producers. Sarah speaks to John Rawcliffe from the UMF Honey Association on the boom. Milk prices next season predicted at $6-plus are going to drop into break-even territory for dairy farmers and AgFirst Waikato agricultural economist Phil Journeaux will share his thoughts on budgeting through this. Then, Head of analytics for NZX Julia Jones will share her thoughts on Fonterra’s fixed milk price option as a good way to hedge your business and how to not put all your energy into what you can’t control. To wrap up the show, The Lean Dairy Farm author Jana Hocken and Rural Innovation Lab chairman Matt Hocken join us from Manawatu on how to work smarter not harder. Sarah Perriam, the host of Sarah's Country, is joined in self-isolation still broadcasting from the Lincoln University campus as an ‘essential service’ with her guest co-host, her Irish producer, Joel Rock.
