About the podcast.
The ‘Ideas that Grow’ podcast is brought to you by Rural Leaders.
The Food and Fibre Sector is full of motivated, grounded producers and agribusiness professionals. People trying to do the right thing by their families, rural communities, rural sector industries and our country.
Ideas that Grow gives voice to these strategic, transformational leaders – able to think critically and lead with the insight and foresight needed to meet both New Zealand’s and the world’s food challenges.
These podcasts are where Food and Fibre leaders, often from our Nuffield NZ Farming Scholarship and Kellogg Rural Leadership programmes, come together to help plant innovative, transformational, and entrepreneurial ideas that grow.
All guest sector leaders are arranged by Rural Leaders. Ideas That Grow is presented in association with our supporting partner Farmer’s Weekly.
