Today on The Country we investigate law changes to NAIT with National Party agriculture spokesman Nathan Guy.

On with the show:

We take our monthly look at the wool market with PGG Wrightson's GM of Wool and ask whether eating wool as a protein source could be a saviour for the industry?

Smiley Barrett:

In the absence of chief executive Tim Myers, today's one man panel features Norwood's Brand Ambassador as we ponder Fonterra, farming and footy.
