Yes, it was rather Trumpy and wasn't it? Thank you, Shane. I see Trump talking about Trump, he's up to it again. Trade Minister Told McClay says no one's happy with Donald Trump's latest tariffs. So if you haven't caught up on this one, it came out earlier this morning. The Trump administration's announced a new 12.5% tariff for dozens of countries, including us here in New Zealand, accusing us of failing to stop forced labor. Rich, isn't it? Coming from the United States of America, the place runs on slave labor, immigrant labor. Uh, Todd McClay says most countries also face new tariffs for other reasons. Uh he told Heather DuPlace Allen earlier this morning that uh he's been in meetings with international counterparts in Paris, and everyone's on the same page. He says there isn't anything saying those new tariffs are a good thing. There isn't anyone, should I say, saying the new tariffs are a good thing as they create uncertainty, affect exporters, and create added costs. The guy is a nut job. Seriously, it's just one hit after another. Up next, right. This is sort of the good news, bad news part of the show today. A Rabobank, it's not even released yet. This is a preview of it. I think it goes it goes to press tomorrow. The June Agribusiness Monthly. Look, the the outlook for dairy, beef, and sheep, the commodity outlooks very good. The problem we have is the cost of farm inputs. The fact that interest rates are going up, and obviously uh while the Strait of Hermoo's stays largely shut, blocked off. Uh the cost of oil and freight is going to remain high. In fact, Rabobank have been crunching the numbers on when that strait could possibly open. We'll discuss that with Jen Corcoran from Rabobank up next on the country.
