On today's REX Daily Podcast, Dom talks with Game Animal Council CEO Corina Jordan about the Game Animal Council (Herds of Special Interest) Amendment Bill (submissions close Thurs 24 July), why she believes it's a crucial moment for NZ and the historical background to the legislation... He talks with David Birkett, arable farmer and Federated Farmers Arable Industry Group Executive Chairperson, about the major issues facing arable farmers in NZ, some of the possible solutions and why NZ risks become a forgotten outcast following Bayer Crop Science's recent decision to close its Hastings research site... And he talks with the Supreme winners at last night's NZ Bacon and Ham Awards; Jordan Hamilton from Wild Game in Hastings, who took home the Supreme Ham Award for their Old School Pressed Ham and Puvi Nadason from Sam’s Butchery in Silverdale, who won the Supreme Bacon winner for their Naturally Maple Streaky Bacon.
