OPINION: I was fortunate to be part of a relatively small group of eight Nuffield scholars, of diverse farming backgrounds, who visited countries on the Brazil Global Focus Program (GFP).

As one large scale US milk producer put it "New Zealand is small and cute" - which is pretty hard to argue with. As many scholars have...
