Our Land and Water Podcast Episode 5: How do we pay for change?
We've heard in previous episodes that in parts of New Zealand we'll need some land-use change to reach the water quality we want for our rivers and lakes, but paying for this change is a huge challenge. The scale of change is large, and many farms don't have the funds - so if our society wants this change, how does society pay?
In this episode, we'll hear about the most developed solution to help farmers pay for change: increase the value of the food we export by making farm management decisions that produce environmentally friendly products that fetch a premium price overseas. We'll also hear some edgier ideas for funding change, like biodiversity incentives, and how collectives of farmers can grow value together.
Speakers: Caroline Saunders (AERU, Lincoln University), James Turner (AgResearch), Carla Muller (PerrinAg).
