On today's REX Daily Podcast, Dom talks with Dr Jason Archer from Beef+Lamb NZ Genetics about a new report looking into the sheep industry's genetic progress over the past thirty years, where the biggest gains have been made and where further progress is likely in the next few years... He talks with Natasha Cave, GM of the Whanganui Region Catchment Collective and co-manager of Rotowai Farms, about receiving one of the inaugural 2025 B+LNZ Leadership Advancement Scholarships which allowed her to complete the Kellogg Rural Leadership Programme, and her subsequent research examining how new technologies, like wearable devices, can enhance productivity in New Zealand’s beef industry... And he talks with Gretchen Parkes, Rural Directions Manager, about some of the varied roles currently on offer in the agriculture sector, the launch of its new real-time salary survey and the state of the current agriculture labour market.
