	Description:		Sarah's Country this week "Future of our food" segment she learns more about Aotearoa’s first Spirulina farm off the small coastal community of Himatangi beach in the North Island of New Zealand. The sustainable superfood is grown in purpose-built shallow ponds, our algae are fed salts and water and harvested in heartlands Manawatu. CEO for Tahi Spirulina Justin Hall explains why he is a supporter of NZ agriculture and horticulture, but feels NZ is way off the pace relative to the rest of the world in terms of food, nutrition and health products from algae. Justin also gives his thoughts on how New Zealand farmers and growers should be thinking about integrating plant based products into their business model even though he believes red meat has a safe and prosperous future. Justin Hall is a speaker at the AgResearch ‘Our Food, Our Future’ as part of NZ AgriFood Week in Palmerston North.
