Great more apples for India while our own prices go through the roof. Classic NZ trade deals 🙄
Exactly. Biosecurity and quality standards could be compromised if we rush this.
Actually pretty hyped about this. India has a billion people who want quality food. Could be huge for our farmers.
yeah nah just another talkfest. Remember the China FTA? Still waiting for those "opportunities" to trickle down.
lol exactly. Trickle-down economics at its finest.
as an ag student this is fascinating but also concerning. Indian dairy could flood our market if we're not careful. Gotta read the fine print.

already import plenty of cheap Indian dairy. Better to trade on our terms than get left behind.
If these entrepreneurs are serious about learning from NZ agritech, that's a win-win. We've got the brains, they've got the scale.
bullshit. We'll sell them our high-end stuff and they'll sell us cheap butter. Net loss for NZ.
ffs more trade deals. Can we sort out our own housing and health before selling more milk to India?
oh piss off Karen. Some of us live in the real world.
Tim McCready's articles always have a boosterish vibe but tbh the Indian market is a tough nut to crack. Let's see if anyone actually walks through that door.
nah get stuffed. Someone's gotta be optimistic or we'll just whinge forever.
meanwhile our farmers are drowning in red tape and the govt wants to tax their farts. But sure, wave the magic FTA wand.
