The Country - Electric edition

Today on The Country, Jamie Mackay took a look at the Government's electic vehicle discount scheme.

On with the show:

Rowena Duncum and Andy Thompson:

Today our intrepid duo were in Taupō on the Goldpine Roadie to the Fieldays, where they'd been fishing, filming and golfing.

David Seymour:

We caught up with a fired-up Act Party leader who reckoned the government was taxing tradies to subsidise Teslas with its EV discount scheme.

Peter Nation:

With two sleeps to go until the gates at Mystery Creek open, the chief executive of Fieldays entered into his final countdown.

Jen Scoular:

The chief executive of NZ Avocado talked about a record-breaking year for the industry.

John McOviney:

Steve Wyn-Harris:

Today's one-man panel featured a Central Hawkes Bay sheep farmer (in the absence of a Northland cow cocky).
