Today on The Country, Rowena Duncum caught up with Fonterra's chief executive Miles Hurrell to talk about a rather impressive leap in the latest GDT result.

Miles Hurrell:

Jacinda Ardern:

With yesterday's announcement of a plan to lift primary sector earnings by $44b over the next 10 years, we ask the PM if this mean we'll see more science and economic modelling around methane emissions.
