Listen "Electrifying Farming"
Episode Synopsis
024 | Before we dove deep into the world of electrification and solar on farms we touched on Denmark's latest annoucement - the first country in the world to tax agri emissions but its not law yet! - will they make it further than anyone else? The UK have had a change in govt, what does it mean for ag and trade? and finally maze maze the amazing maize, well not quite so quickly! there are huge supply chain issues cause all sorts of problems for those growing maize for grain in the North Island. This week we had the epic Mike Casey from Forest Lodge Orchard and Rewiring Aotearoa co-hosting the pod with us. He is a "nerd" (of his own admission) in the world of electrification, he's blazing the trial right out front showing the rest of us what can be done. He's then very kindly sharing all his knowledge so we can learn and uptake as quickly as possible. This is an exciting conversation that really ignited the flame of opportunity and how farming can be a solution to the country!Mike Casey - https://www.linkedin.com/in/mikesimoncasey/Forest Lodge Orchard (Mike's Cherries) - https://www.instagram.com/forestlodgeorchard/Rewiring Aotearoa - Website InstagramElectric Farms report - https://www.rewiring.nz/electric-farmsElectric Homes report - https://www.rewiring.nz/electric-homes-reportHOSTS | @emilywalker @myfanwyalexanderIntro/outro copyright infoTrack: "Sunrise Instr"Music provided by Royalty-free music for creators.
