El Niño is a personality, it’s not a weather forecast. Recent gales cause extensive damage. And what you can do to help minimise creating more work for yourself when winds pick up. These are the talking points in Episode 2 of our new podcast series, El Niño Watch – brought to you by FMG.

Join AgriHQ senior analyst and Hawke’s Bay farmer Suz Bremner with forecaster Philip Duncan every week as they track the latest developments with the El Niño weather pattern and what this means for farmers.

This week our guest is Karen Williams of FMG to talk gales, irrigators and … did you know it only takes a lunch break for a bird to build a nest that could burn down your tractor?! You gotta hear this!

The New El Niño Watch Podcast – every Wednesday – brought to you by Farmers Weekly, RuralWeather.co.nz and FMG – we’re here for the good of the country.
