This week on The Best of The Country, Jamie Mackay caught up with Rabobank's Asia Pacific Strategist Michael Every, for an interesting chat about how the US-China trade war could affect Kiwi farmers.
This week's top interviews are:
Miles Hurrell:
The chief executive of Fonterra does not try to sugar-coatsome disastrous numbers released to the market this morning - an asset write-down of $820-860 million, a financial loss of $590-675 million and the payment of no dividend for the FY19. The only good news is that the forecast milk price remains unchanged.
In an extended two-part interview, and in response to yesterday's interview with Mossburn farmer John Douglas, we talk to a Waikato engineer and environmental campaigner about why he is leading the crusade against the winter grazing of dairy cows in Southland.
Angus Robson - Part 2:
We ask about the use of drones, trespassing and what Angus plans to do about ocean and urban water pollution.
Rabobank's Asia Pacific Strategist from the political hot bed of Hong Kong, and in light of the US-China trade war, we ask if the world is going to hell in a hand cart.
Simon Bridges:
In the absence of Jacinda Ardern we ask National's leader to fill in for the day and whether he wants to fill in fulltime - now that Mike Hosking has said he's starting to look like a PM.
