Government Amends Stock Exclusion Regulations for Low-Intensity Grazing
The Government has announced changes to stock exclusion regulations which it claims will cut unnecessary costs and inflexible rules while maintaining environmental protections.
With recent polling putting National/ACT ahead of Labour/Greens, Hoggard could end up as the Minister for Agriculture and Trade in a Chris Luxon-led government.
While some may call this wishful thinking this early, having the former Feds president as ag minister could cause quite the stir in the Beehive.
Hoggard's popularity among New Zealand farmers and his international profile is such that, if he got the job, it could give the farming sector a real confidence boost.
