For Dear Science this week, our expert, Professor Allan Blackman chats with us about a new solar solution, the periodic table anniversary, and the latest research on human senses For our weekly catchup with the National Party, Wire Host Sara spoke to National MP Ryan Hamlilton about Wellington's wastewater treatment plant failure, the State of the Nation, and NZ First's call for a Māori seats referendum For Green World, news-teamer Alex spoke to Nikolai Siimes, a Doctoral Researcher at the University of Auckland, about Biodynamic Alternatives to Fungicides Producer Vihan spoke to the University of Auckland's Shahper Richter on balancing AI and human values.

Despite their strong reputation for sustainability, New Zealand's vineyards and orchards still use large amounts of fungicide to fight plant diseases. These chemicals carry environmental risks, including the greenhouse gases emitted through their manufacture and transportation, and the toxic run-off which they can cause when applied. Newsteamer Alex spoke with Nikolai Siimes, a Doctoral Researcher at the University of Auckland who says we should be looking at alternatives — not just developing better pesticides, but rethinking our fruit farming practices from the ground up. 

On this week's Tillage Podcast we speak to an expert in fungicide resistance.

From the food we eat to the parks, farms, and neighborhoods around us, pesticide policy quietly shapes everyday life in the United States.In this installment of our Explained series on the nation's foundational environmental laws, we turn to the Federal Insecticide, Fungicide, and Rodenticide Act, better known as FIFRA. Host Sebastian Duque Rios is joined by Dr. Jennifer Sass of the Natural Resources Defense Council and Keith Matthews of Matthews Law LLC to unpack how pesticides are regulated in the United States, why FIFRA was created, and how it has evolved from a consumer protection statute into a central health and environmental safeguard.Together, they walk through how EPA evaluates pesticide risks and benefits, what “unreasonable adverse effects” really means in practice, and how FIFRA interacts with food safety law and state authority. The conversation also explores the role of labels and enforcement, the promise and limits of safer alternatives like biopesticides, and the pressures facing pesticide regulation today—from staffing shortages to faster approval timelines. Whether you work in environmental law or are just trying to understand how pesticides are regulated, this episode offers a clear understanding of how FIFRA affects what ends up on our food, in our environment, and in our bodies. ★ Support this podcast ★

It's mid-December and we're still talking fungicide. Why? After what we saw in 2025, it requires a deeper dive before 2026 decisions are made.Fungicides are a valuable tool for raising high yielding corn. The benefits include increased yield, improved plant health and better standability at harvest. All hybrids can respond positively to a properly timed fungicide application, especially in environments that favor the development of leaf disease.On today's podcast, the Wyffels agronomy team reviews multiyear data, explores best practices for ROI, and offers thoughts on strategy for 2026.

In this episode of the Computomics podcast, Pernille Ollendorff Hede, CEO and co-founder of Healthycrop, discusses the company's innovative approach to fungal-resistant crops. Healthycrop boosts the production of Nepenthesin, a naturally occurring enzyme in plants, to degrade fungal enzymes, preventing fungal growth without the need for fungicides. Using cis-genesis and gene editing techniques, Healthycrop enhances the plant's natural defense. While these techniques are classified as genetically modified (GM) in Europe, they are considered non-GM in the U.S. Pernille shares the company's mission to revolutionize agriculture by offering sustainable solutions and hopes for regulatory changes in Europe to facilitate broader adoption.More:Healthycrop - HomepagePernille Ollendorff Hede on LinkedIn

In this episode of 'Maximize Your Hunt', host Jon Teater (Whitetail Landscapes) and guest Jaden Bjorklund (Northland Habitat), discuss habitat and timber management, and government programs related to trees and overall management strategies to improve hunting properties. This podcast episode explores various aspects of land management, focusing on habitat improvement, tree diseases like oak wilt, and effective tree planting strategies. The conversation emphasizes the importance of community building among landowners, the role of forest health specialists, and the need for diversity in tree species to enhance forest ecosystems. Listeners will gain insights into practical management techniques, including grafting and creating tree nurseries, as well as understanding the economic aspects of tree planting. Takeaways Maximize Your Hunt focuses on habitat management for hunting properties. Using fire as a weeding method can be effective but time-consuming. Oak wilt is a significant concern for forest health. Red oaks are more susceptible to oak wilt than other species. Fungicide injections can help save affected trees if caught early. Community building is essential for sharing knowledge in land management. Diversity in tree species can enhance forest resilience. Planting trees should be done in manageable quantities. Creating a tree nursery can be a cost-effective strategy. Cost share funding is available for tree planting initiatives.
