G'day, New Zealand. Good afternoon. I'm Jamie McKay. This is the country. Brought to you by Rabobank. That's the best of the country on Saturday morning. Farmlands and I Suzu, get it right. If you're looking for a good vehicle, trust me. Have a crack at that Isuzu MUX Seven CETA. It is a cracker. We were going to kick off the show with um, excuse me, Labor's Ag, a spokesperson, Damian O'Connor. Uh lots of debate about the gene technology laws in this country. And also um he wanted to talk about the sale of farms to foreigners. Unfortunately, we're having a bit of trouble tracking Damian O'Connor down. So we're going to kick off the show very shortly with Emma Higgins. It's Dairy Week here on the country. Um so we're going to have a look at the bank's May Agribusiness Monthly report. Hot off the press. We'll have a look at dairy, beef, sheep, fuel, furt. We really want to go there. Interest in exchange rates. When's our I think we've got another OCR later this month. Uh when can we expect interest rates to rise? Rocky Hawkins. Hawke Spay, out of Hawks Bay, a legend of the sport of dog trialing. New Zealand champs are coming up later this month in Hawke's Bay, May 25 to 29. We'll preview those. And earlier this morning, I caught up with farmer Tom Martin, our U for uh UK farming correspondent, is Sakir Starmer on his way out. How's he faring as an arable farmer with poor prices and sky high prices for fuel and fertilizer? And believe it or not, it's their spring. It's uh what the equivalent of our November over there, and they are in a stinker, stinker of a spring drought. Had 30 mills since February. We'll talk to farmer Tom Martin about that. Michelle will have rural news for you and we'll update sport as well. But up next, it is Emma Higgins from Rabobank.
