Rural Delivery - Series Eight, Episode 19

In this 2012 episode of Rural Delivery — a magazine style series dedicated to New Zealand farming, agri-tech and horticulture — Te Puke horticulturist Geoff Oliver introduces the delicious 'KiwiBerry', a smaller Kiwifruit species that's proving to be popular. The second story profiles Northland farmers Bert and Rebecca Borger, putting in the work to grow happy, free-range chickens and pigs. Back in the studio, presenter Roger Bourne talks to Federated Farmers National Vice President and biological science advocate Dr William Rolleston about the Feds 2012 conference and his hopes for the future of the sector.

They're a bit like a Ferrari, you can't run 'em on diesel, she's got to have really good fuel going in: good fuel, good eggs and that's what we get all the time.
