What can Latin America offer New Zealand agri-business?

Mike Petersen spent 10 days in May/June visiting several cities in Mexico, Colombia, Brazil and Argentina in his role as Special Agricultural Trade Envoy (SATE). During the trip, Mike shared New Zealand perspectives for a competitive and profitable agricultural sector, and met with several key agri-stakeholders, from Secretaries of Agriculture to Industry Association directors, local farmers and journalists.

At this exclusive LANZBC event, Mike will reflect on his time in Latin America, sharing his observations and thoughts on the opportunities that the region offers agricultural exporters, together with an insight as to his experiences as Special Agriculture Trade Envoy.
