And for Lupchuke really yeah, 3 00:00:08,240 --> 00:00:11,360 Speaker 2: but it's a little bit no relation, a no relation 4 00:00:11,520 --> 00:00:13,600 Speaker 2: different spelling in Machais that we all got off the 5 00:00:13,600 --> 00:00:15,840 Speaker 2: same boat and has just claimed that they were smarter 6 00:00:15,920 --> 00:00:18,120 Speaker 2: and kept the spelling correct. Where his mind drop drop 7 00:00:18,280 --> 00:00:19,119 Speaker 2: the A after the M. 8 00:00:19,280 --> 00:00:21,520 Speaker 1: So well, it's because you guys were smart and efficient, 9 00:00:21,560 --> 00:00:23,440 Speaker 1: he though, we don't need that A. Get rid of it. 10 00:00:23,600 --> 00:00:27,040 Speaker 2: That's right, that's right, exactly, it's all about efficiency, that's right. 11 00:00:27,080 --> 00:00:29,400 Speaker 1: All those a's over a lifetime, they really add up. 12 00:00:30,000 --> 00:00:32,600 Speaker 1: Now anyway, listen Frontierra, I see is doing the road 13 00:00:32,600 --> 00:00:35,640 Speaker 1: show to sell the big consumer brands stuff to the shareholders. 14 00:00:35,640 --> 00:00:36,720 Speaker 1: Are they liking what they're hearing? 15 00:00:37,840 --> 00:00:40,040 Speaker 2: Yeah? I don't think there's going to be the first 16 00:00:40,320 --> 00:00:44,000 Speaker 2: of the road shows in Songiray. Last night it appears 17 00:00:44,040 --> 00:00:47,360 Speaker 2: that all were in favor. Some good questions coming from 18 00:00:47,400 --> 00:00:51,840 Speaker 2: the floor about the length of supply of fonterra and milk. 19 00:00:51,920 --> 00:00:54,840 Speaker 2: I guess you know the ingredients end of things, and 20 00:00:54,880 --> 00:00:57,040 Speaker 2: you know that's a that's a keen year contract and 21 00:00:57,080 --> 00:01:01,520 Speaker 2: it can't be broken. About a first six months notification 22 00:01:01,680 --> 00:01:04,120 Speaker 2: after seven years, so that's a fair bit of time 23 00:01:04,200 --> 00:01:08,319 Speaker 2: that lack. Carlos will take this milk without any question. 24 00:01:08,440 --> 00:01:09,840 Speaker 2: And at the end of the day, I think these 25 00:01:09,880 --> 00:01:13,560 Speaker 2: guys realize the consumer business, the mainland, the anchor, the capity, 26 00:01:13,640 --> 00:01:16,120 Speaker 2: the press and fruity, the perfect at Taliano and all 27 00:01:16,160 --> 00:01:18,440 Speaker 2: that was bringing about a three percent return on capital 28 00:01:18,480 --> 00:01:22,360 Speaker 2: these days, whereas your ingredients and your food service you're 29 00:01:22,400 --> 00:01:24,959 Speaker 2: straightforward more milk and powder and things eleven to thirteen 30 00:01:25,000 --> 00:01:26,960 Speaker 2: percent average for the last four or five years. So 31 00:01:27,480 --> 00:01:30,399 Speaker 2: there's not too much in the way of descent around US. 32 00:01:30,920 --> 00:01:34,120 Speaker 2: October seventh of vote happens. It'll be Q one next 33 00:01:34,200 --> 00:01:37,440 Speaker 2: year before it's all sort of finalized. But yeah, it 34 00:01:38,120 --> 00:01:41,160 Speaker 2: looks most even the smallest of farmers doing one hundred 35 00:01:41,200 --> 00:01:44,160 Speaker 2: thousand kilograms say of milk sides are going to thank 36 00:01:44,200 --> 00:01:46,520 Speaker 2: to three hundred k. So I think it's probably a 37 00:01:46,520 --> 00:01:49,800 Speaker 2: bit of a no brainer and will be well received, 38 00:01:50,080 --> 00:01:51,880 Speaker 2: certainly not pitching it well put it that way. 39 00:01:52,040 --> 00:01:54,680 Speaker 1: Yeah, well it's quite enticing that level of money. Look, 40 00:01:54,720 --> 00:01:56,280 Speaker 1: on the subject of money, is the price of the 41 00:01:56,280 --> 00:01:58,360 Speaker 1: sheep in the beef land unsustainable? 42 00:01:59,240 --> 00:02:01,680 Speaker 2: Oh? Look, I think so. There's been a wonderful article 43 00:02:01,720 --> 00:02:05,920 Speaker 2: written by the renowned Lincoln University professor Keith Woodward, and 44 00:02:05,960 --> 00:02:08,560 Speaker 2: he said in his excellent article on this topic, Houston, 45 00:02:08,720 --> 00:02:10,600 Speaker 2: we have a problem. It's a pretty big problem to 46 00:02:11,120 --> 00:02:13,440 Speaker 2: look it. It reflects the housing market a bit when 47 00:02:13,560 --> 00:02:17,000 Speaker 2: interest rates drop and everybody goes booga and goes crazy 48 00:02:17,040 --> 00:02:19,359 Speaker 2: and stupid. You know, some of these land prices now, 49 00:02:19,840 --> 00:02:23,600 Speaker 2: despite these great farm gate returns, there's very good returns, 50 00:02:23,639 --> 00:02:26,880 Speaker 2: you know, two hundred and ninety two dollars for lambs, 51 00:02:26,880 --> 00:02:29,359 Speaker 2: hoggets and things, you know, things that not that long 52 00:02:29,400 --> 00:02:32,440 Speaker 2: ago were seventy and ninety dollars. But at best, the 53 00:02:32,480 --> 00:02:35,160 Speaker 2: return on capital is still only one to two percent. 54 00:02:35,600 --> 00:02:37,480 Speaker 2: So who can afford to buy that? You're one of 55 00:02:37,520 --> 00:02:39,520 Speaker 2: four siblings wanting to buy out the other three. You 56 00:02:39,560 --> 00:02:41,200 Speaker 2: haven't got to open how the bank's not want to 57 00:02:41,200 --> 00:02:44,960 Speaker 2: give you the money to do that. It's just unsustainable really. 58 00:02:44,960 --> 00:02:46,440 Speaker 2: But we're going to have a bit of a crisis 59 00:02:46,440 --> 00:02:49,520 Speaker 2: here because the average age of sheep and beef farmers, 60 00:02:49,520 --> 00:02:50,840 Speaker 2: and I don't doubt this for a minute, it was 61 00:02:50,840 --> 00:02:53,280 Speaker 2: about fifty eight to sixty. So a lot of them 62 00:02:53,320 --> 00:02:54,799 Speaker 2: are going to be wanting to get the cash and 63 00:02:54,840 --> 00:02:56,960 Speaker 2: out of it. So it raises the question, you know, 64 00:02:57,040 --> 00:03:00,639 Speaker 2: what are you know, surely there's some excellent models out 65 00:03:00,680 --> 00:03:02,720 Speaker 2: there where you by your leave equity and yet young 66 00:03:02,760 --> 00:03:04,960 Speaker 2: people come in and take the land to the next level. 67 00:03:05,080 --> 00:03:06,960 Speaker 2: And there's all sorts of it. But it has got 68 00:03:07,000 --> 00:03:09,760 Speaker 2: a bit, you know, it has got a bit top 69 00:03:09,840 --> 00:03:12,760 Speaker 2: heavy in terms of those you know, twelve thy fifteen 70 00:03:12,840 --> 00:03:15,639 Speaker 2: thouers of the heck there, I mean, that's running away 71 00:03:15,680 --> 00:03:15,960 Speaker 2: with it. 72 00:03:16,000 --> 00:03:17,560 Speaker 1: Sounds like any listen, you're going to go to that 73 00:03:17,600 --> 00:03:18,440 Speaker 1: sharing competition. 74 00:03:19,400 --> 00:03:21,720 Speaker 2: Oh, I'll be the one I'll be lining up is 75 00:03:21,720 --> 00:03:24,919 Speaker 2: the World Champs at the Golden Shears in March.

So 79 00:03:33,639 --> 00:03:35,680 Speaker 2: that's going to be fantastic. But it all kicks off 80 00:03:35,680 --> 00:03:38,840 Speaker 2: really this weekend because there's only two places in the 81 00:03:38,880 --> 00:03:41,480 Speaker 2: New Zealand team available to compete at the World Chance. 82 00:03:41,600 --> 00:03:44,480 Speaker 2: So they have a series of about five events through 83 00:03:44,520 --> 00:03:48,400 Speaker 2: to then and the one guy you can guarantee will 84 00:03:48,400 --> 00:03:51,720 Speaker 2: be the rating Golden Cheers Champ Victor Henderson.
