Federated Farmers president Katie Milne says they're sometimes called Nats in gumboots, but they do have to try to be apolitical where they can.

That said, Jamie Mackay asks her on The Country what would happen if the Greens were in charge of primary industries?

Mackay also asks Milne about Landcorp selling farms to young farmers and she says "they won't be getting a free lunch".

And will she be turning up to the farmer protest in Morrinsville on Monday?

Listen to the full interview below:
