The newly-elected Federated Farmers vice president and biosecurity spokesman (and YOLO farmer) comments on the response to the threat of Foot and Mouth Disease and a bugger of a July for Kiwi cockies.

Stu Loe and Stu Duncan:

Today's panel features the "Two Stu's" as we ponder farming, footy and the weather.

Barry Soper:
