Description:

We’re back! After taking a little break for the Easter weekend, Sarah is joined by another great line up of guests for tonight’s show. Sarah also asks our viewers their thoughts on how to encourage the unemployed to join the primary sector and much more on this episode of Sarah’s Country.

Sarah welcomes social licence consultant Penny Clark-Hall to the show to discuss the theory that people focused on survival and economic security are more forgiving of industry and less concerned with its integrity and credibility. But she warns we shouldn’t shirk our environmental responsibilities, and that it's important to stay humble.


Sarah’s Country is all about you, the listener, so we invited Simon Limmer from Silver Fern Farms to give us an update on the processing capacity outlook and answer your burining questions.

 


Then, Sarah chats

to Farmstrong Project Lead Gerard Vaughan about how rural communities can look

after each other. Gerard reminds us that mindset is contagious too, so let's

spread laughter and not negativity!


And we wrap up the show with Chris Webb from Royal NZ Institute of Horticulture who chats to Sarah about what the Institute does and the importance of horticulture as a career and how to ensure people working in the industry are well trained.



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.
