The cost of running a farm is surging. ANZ's latest Agri Insights report, which used data from more than four thousand farms over five years, found costs across the board were 27% higher than before Covid. It was driven largely by increased labour and input costs, such as fertiliser. Lincoln University's Dr Jacqueline Rowarth told Mike Hosking that the farmers who buy retail and sell wholesale are the ones feeling the pinch. She says there are some sectors who, although their land may have cost more in the beginning, are getting better returns per hectare, and the gap between the top farmers and the average ones has increased.

A Rabobank report is warning tensions between the United States and China means agricultural exports are at risk of "becoming pawns on a geopolitical chessboard." It suggests 2026 could mark a new era of geopolitical influenced agriculture sector. Lincoln University Adjunct Professor of AgriScience Jacqueline Rowarth told Mike Hosking the more unstable the planet is, the more unstable business is.

Global dairy giant Nestle has withdrawn from the Dairy Methane Action Alliance, prompting speculation. This follows other companies backing out of climate initiatives, with the Net Zero Banking Alliance confirming it was set to shut down earlier in the week. Agribusiness expert Dr Jacqueline Rowarth says it's likely the Alliance didn't move fast enough for Nestle, and they're taking their support elsewhere. "The Alliance has not worked as well as they thought - and remember, Nestle's done some really good work around the world with regenerative agriculture, with cropping... so they're putting their money where they're actually getting action."

There's an expectation farmer confidence will stay high as long as commodity prices stay up. The latest Rabobank survey's found farmers' faith in the broader agricultural economy is at its second highest level in the last decade, up to 46%. 51% expect it to improve in the year ahead. DairyNZ Board Member Jacqueline Rowarth told Mike Hosking the sector's cautiously positive, as trade may change at any time. But she says New Zealand is the best producer of essential amino acids at the lowest environmental impact, so our meat and milk is wanted.

“It’s the economy, stupid. This phrase remains both relevant and important, despite its age.

Is it worth trying to grow rice in New Zealand? As our appetite for the staple crop increases, ecologist Yuki Fukada has pointed out the complete lack of commercial rice production in the country. We're currently importing $95 million worth of rice from overseas – about 85,000 tons. Lincoln University's Dr Jacqueline Rowarth told Mike Hosking Fukada is looking at it in terms of volume, but she thinks we should be looking at value instead. Rice is a $2 a kilo crop, Rowarth says, and if we can grow something of a higher value we should stick with that instead of replacing it with rice.
