Episode Details

On today's REX Daily Podcast, Dom talks with Associate Environment Minister Andrew Hoggard about proposed government changes in which Freshwater farm plans will be required only on areas of farms where high-risk activity occurs, how the changes could reduce pressure on growers and some of the other government proposals announced recently to cut agricultural red tape and regulation... And he talks with Belinda Rutherford from Hurunui Hens about her free range egg operation in North Canterbury, the vigilance required in the face of bird flu detected in NZ and the gust of wind last year that almost cost more than just her hen shed.
