John Murphy: Vegetables NZ Chair on the increasing demand for growers in the Canterbury region

The Mike Hosking Breakfast - A podcast by Newstalk ZB - Wednesdays

There’s an increasing demand for growers in Canterbury.  A reliable water supply and cheaper land than Marlborough and Hawke's Bay are attracting horticulture suppliers to the region.  Vegetables NZ chair John Murphy says it's great to see things like Rockit apples grown in South Canterbury.  He told Mike Hosking it will help achieve the goal of doubling export values, and new opportunities mean fresh produce can continue to be supplied to New Zealand.  LISTEN ABOVE See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
