How do we fix ag policy? | EP 14
We all know something's broken in the way agricultural policy has been made in New Zealand, but what's the solution? How do we get farming regulations that actually work? Kerry Worsnop is a Gisborne sheep and beef farmer who's been on a mission to find answers through her Nuffield Scholarship.
