The New Zealand cruise season got off to a slow start, but from Boxing Day until January 5th over 50 cruise ships will dock in across the country bringing a boost to local economies. Although, NZ Cruise Association CEO Jacqui Lloyd told Andrew Dickens that eco-regulations and increased costs have slowed the industry. "While it's great to have the ships in port, it is disappointing in the numbers that are coming in," Lloyd said. LISTEN ABOVE See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

This week, we honour the stillness of winter and the returning promise of light as we mark the winter solstice. At this turning of the year, we reflect on the people, plants and initiatives that this new light brings into focus. We begin by stepping into the richly curious world of Christopher Lloyd, the influential gardener and visionary behind Great Dixter House and Gardens. His legacy is recalled by his former student and now Head Gardener at Great Dixter, Fergus Garrett. Nick Turrell then returns with his top 10 countdown of plants that changed human history. This time, Nick delves into one species that helped ignite a vast global industry, asking whether its influence has ultimately made our lives better or worse. Finally, a look to the future with Sara Redstone who shines a light on a pioneering initiative taken up by theRHS, focused on strengthening plant biosecurity, highlighting the vital work being done to protect our plants and ecosystems for generations to come.

Hornets are on notice as the Government commits $12 million to stamp them out in Auckland. The yellow-legged hornet was detected on the North Shore earlier this year. They pose a serious threat to honeybees and, by extension, to the agricultural sector. Biosecurity Minister Andrew Hoggard says since the start of November, 37 queen hornets and 28 nests have been destroyed. More than 730 traps have already been deployed. Hoggard told Kerre Woodham they've searched over 6000 properties so far. LISTEN ABOVE See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

In this episode, we sit down with Dr. Rodrigo Gallardo, poultry veterinarian from UC Davis, to unpack the critical connection between biosecurity and the prevention of Avian Influenza (AI) — a highly contagious and potentially devastating disease for all chickens and gamefowl breeders and their bloodlines. Whether you're a breeder or raiser, understanding how AI spreads and how to block it at the source is essential. We explore the differences between Low Pathogenic (LPAI) and Highly Pathogenic (HPAI) strains, the role of wild birds in transmission, and the economic and animal welfare impacts of outbreaks. You'll learn: How Avian Influenza is transmitted—and how quickly it can spread The early warning signs of AI in chickens What biosecurity really means and how to implement it effectively Why vaccination isn't a universal solution (and when it might be used) Key biosecurity practices every breeder should follow—regardless of flock size The role of veterinarians in disease surveillance, outbreak response, and long-term prevention Whether you're an experienced breeder or a first-time chicken keeper, this conversation offers practical advice and up-to-date insight to help you keep your birds — and your farm — safe from disease. #AvianInfluenza #Biosecurity #PoultryHealth #GamefowlBreeding #ChickenBreeders #HPAI #LPAI #BackyardChickens #PoultryVeterinaryCare #DiseasePrevention #FarmBiosecurity #UCDAvisPoultry Join us on Bred to Perfection Live, Friday's at 6pm PST or 9pm EST on YouTube, as we discuss the benefits of creating your own strain.

Three queens have been discovered on Auckland's North Shore, one in the early stages of building a nest, and two males have also been spotted. The hornet, that's not established in New Zealand, is known to feed on honey bees and could pose a threat to the industry. Northland conservationist and former beekeeper Brad Windust spoke to Lisa Owen.

I'm really fascinated by today's topic of looking into pest and disease outbreaks in animal agriculture from an economist's point of view. Our guest, Jada Thompson, is going to discuss the economics behind prevention of these biosecurity issues,the economic impact when outbreaks do occur, some of the tradeoffs in the difficult decisions that need to be made, what that means for producers and consumers, and a whole lot more. To give you a little bit of background on Jada: Dr. Jada Thompson is an associate professor in the Department of Agricultural Economics and Agribusiness at the University of Arkansas. She worked in private industry for a few years managing customer insights and pricing analytics before earning her Ph.D. in Agricultural Economics from Colorado State University in 2016. Dr. Thompson's research primarily focuses on animal health and livestock economics with emphasis on the poultry industry. She also came very highly recommended from Dr. Trey Malone who was on this show last year on episode 434. So thank you Trey for the referral to Jada.
