New Zealand’s Election Limbo, Lamb Trade Threats and the Money Behind Solar Grazing
New Zealand’s election remains undecided as Damian Buckley joins Trent Loos on Across the Pond to explain why special votes could delay a final government until November 27. The conversation turns to agriculture and global trade, including a possible California port strike that threatens New Zealand lamb imports. Following the money, they examine how government policies and subsidies, including solar grazing programs, are reshaping the sheep industry in both countries. The episode also examines Alaska’s ranked-choice voting system, TikTok’s suppression of political and AI content, and how feed quality affects reproductive rates in artificial insemination programs for today’s livestock producers.
