Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Feature | Why PF Olsen and Forest 360 became Stand
Q: And what sort of information and advice can farmers expect when they consider engaging Stand for consulting on forestry and tree establishment?
They can expect a holistic assessment starting with a phone call and a visit to understand the landowner's objectives, followed by advice on species and site choices, establishment options, and full business case modeling to show cash flows and long-term value.
Feature | Why businesses must adapt to a new era of global instability
Q: Do you think we'll see more of the kind of cooperative agreements like the NZ-Singapore deal on fuel and food as a mutual benefit strategy?
The guest suggests that smaller countries will increasingly pursue bilateral and coalitional arrangements to shore up resilience, but these will be targeted and selective, not a universal solution; the key is strategic collaboration to diversify risk and unlock efficiency gains.
Feature | Practical advice for farmers considering farm solar
Q: What does self-consumption look like on a dairy farm with big electrical loads?
On dairy farms, self-consumption focuses on using the solar output to power high-use loads like irrigation pumps, chillers, and milking equipment, with sizing and timing optimized to maximize on-site use.
Feature | Practical advice for farmers considering farm solar
Q: Could you start by describing what EECA does and how it supports farmers considering solar?
EECA is a government agency that promotes energy efficiency and renewable energy, offering impartial information and a targeted program for farmers to help them assess solar options without bias from installers.
Feature | Emissions reduction tools hit the accelerator
Q: What is the purpose of the new accelerator and how does it work?
It funds the uptake of existing, available technologies by farmers and processors, with government matching funding through an independent panel, aimed at turning pilot projects into on-farm deployments.
