This week on The Best of The Country, Jamie Mackay caught up with Rabobank global strategist Michael Every, who had a rather positive report for the state of the world.
This week's top interviews were:
David Seymour:
We asked the Act Party leader if he was really the Leader ofthe Opposition, whether Judith's days were numbered and why he wanted to "liberate" good teachers?
One of New Zealand's farming academics challenged whether the levels of nitrates in our drinking water was injurious to our health.
Hunter McGregor:
The Kiwi selling New Zealand venison in Shanghai said his latest venture was setting up the first international New Zealand venison BBQ day. We also discussed the no-nonsense Chinese attitude to the Covid vaccine rollout and Asia's largest food and beverage trade show.
Our UK farming correspondent talked about a free trade deal with Australia, regenerative agriculture, the vaccine rollout and whether Boris's impending nuptials will be good for poll ratings.
Shane McManaway:
We found one of this country's most influential primary sector leaders across the Tasman, on an 11-million-acre Queensland cattle farm. Plus, we updated progress on the south Wairarapa Health Centre that he and his wife were building.
Michael Every:
The Singapore-based global strategist for Rabobank said the end was not nigh for the world, despite some very dark Covid, geopolitical, trade and inflationary clouds on the horizon.
