Agriculture and climate leaders argue that farmers must be paid to adopt methane-reducing technologies due to lack of productivity benefits, as current government strategies and emission targets fall short of ensuring widespread adoption.

G'day, New Zealand. Welcome to the country. I'm Jamie Mackay. Show's brought to you by Farmlands and Isuzu. An Italian theme today because I can't call him the Italian stallion. But Wayne Langford, the president of Federated Farmers, is back on the tools today. He's in Greymouth after his Italian sojourn with Mrs. Yolo. Very romantic. I've been following him on social media. Interestingly, it is AGM season for the Fed. Several women stepping up to the presidential plate in the provinces will talk about that and also the PINS conference and awards coming up in late June. Winston Peters talking about Italians. He's got that mafioso look about him, hasn't he? He's going to kick off the show. I've got a bit of a bone to pick with Winston. Jane Smith, North Otago farmer, award-winning environmentalist. Her and her husband husband Blair won the Balanced Farm Environment Awards. They've had a busload of South American farmers on their farm, and they're incredulous about carbon farming. And how it came to pass in our country. They're also exporting their Perendale sheep to Japan. Callum McDonald uh from PGG rights, and it's the bull selling season. I think it gets underway today. Some big money going to be paid for bulls this season. A hundred and sixty-one thousand was the record price set last year for uh Angus Bull. And Chris Russell's our Aussie correspondent. They had their budget this week. Um I I I wonder whether well, I know they couldn't balance their books. Looks like we can't balance ours either. As coming up on May the 28th. Okay, but uh we're gonna kick it off with Winston. He's up next.
