NZ First's rural vision with Mark Patterson: Fieldays 2026

Welcome to Blue Shed Diary! We are your go-to podcast for Farmers, Growers, and the Rural Sector. We have hit the road and headed to Mystery Creek for Fieldays to talk to the movers and shakers of the Primary Industries. It's not every day you can walk down the street and see politicians from all sides of the aisle, but at Fieldays you can - especially this year! In November, New Zealand heads to the polls and the parties are asking for your vote. So, what's their pitch to the provinces?Joining the conversation is New Zealand First's MP Mark Patterson. He is Minister for Rural Communities, Associate Minister of Agriculture and Regional Development.
