It's the whole show in one go! Today The Country is brought to you by Noel Gallagher because it's his birthday. Oasis tragic Dom George is beside himself.
On with the show: Phil Duncan: Monday's resident weather expert lines up a pretty good Gypsy Day (June 1) for us but warns of more unwanted wet weather for the North Island.
Graeme Muller: The chief executive of the NZ Technology Industry Association warns of a major threat to the dairy industry - animal-free proteins and the 3D printing of synthetic milk, which is claimed to be more nutritious and sustainable than the real thing!
David Broome and Don Nicolson: Today's panel features two former Feds with a love of farming but differing political agendas. On today's menu - a new leader for Federated Farmers and the Budget.
Phil Ropiha and John Olsen: In association with STIHL Chainsaw Safety Awareness Week we give away a STIHL Farmboss MS 311 chainsaw (upgraded to STIHL Duro tungsten carbide chain) valued at $1,570 plus two Chainsaw Safety Packs (chaps, earmuffs and glasses) valued at $242 each.
Jim Hopkins: Is a rural raconteur who ponders the Budget and who should be paying to extract water.
