The Country's Jamie Mackay is joined by PGG Wrightson's GM for Livestock, Peter Moore, to look at the state of the nation in terms of New Zealand's livestock market.
Moore talked about the various climate conditions across the country, with dry spells on the east coast of the North Island and in northern Otago, and wet patches throughout the bottom of the South Island.
Mackay asked if store stock was being brought forward, as farmers on the east coasts had been told to expect a dry summer.
Moore confirmed this, and added that there was a larger than usual yarding at Stortford Lodge yesterday, as farmers were being cautious and not wanting to be caught out.
