Award winning Powys food producers at Royal Welsh Show
This year's food hall at the Royal Welsh Show has showcased some of the tastiest offerings the county has to offer. New to the show was the multi award-winning Trefaldwyn Cheese, whose blue cheese is considered one of the best in the world. Owner Glenn Lloyd said: 'We have launched Ruby Red which is soft cow's milk brie. It seems to be going down really, really well. We have our full range here today. 'This is our first time. We did the Winter Fair in the autumn. We had so much success, we sold out, so we thought we would give the summer show a go.' There was a newcomer from Brecon with 2Greedy run by Eliot Lawrence, who just finished his job as a chef to pursue his own business in gluten free baking. 'I was working as a chef and the Royal Welsh was the opportunity I had to have that kick up the backside to take it full time,' said Eliot. 'It's all done at home in a little village called Cradoc just outside Brecon. Everything is baked without gluten.' Fellow Brecon baker Zoe Parry who runs Zoe Bakes was attending her second Royal Welsh Show and sells her delicious Rocky road and caramel brownies in Brecon and Hay on Wye. 'It was really good last time,' said Zoe. 'I bake at home and I do Hay market each week, I have a little baby at home so I now make and my mum sells.' Welshpool's Trailhead Get Jerky who were debuting their new salted beef alongside their traditional jerky products. Trailhead's Emma Morris said: 'It is made of Welsh PGI beef it is made through a curing process and salt beef is quite a traditional product we are offering that as cooked, sliced and packed versions. 'People are using that for sandwiches and bagels. Chefs are using it for canapes, that is the one we are focusing on for the Royal Welsh this year.' David Morris at Welsh Farmhouse Apple Juice in Crickhowell is celebrating after getting the royal seal of approval - 'The Royal Warrant was reissued by the King in the year just gone,' said David. 'We make 30 different types of apple juice. We don't add any type of sugar we only add vitamin C and it is all organic. 'I was hoping to have some of our new pear but it has been very, very popular so we are a victim of our own success on that one.'

Agribusiness and Trade: How Fonterra and Zespri are navigating US tariffs
'We're still working through it.' For the horticulture sector's biggest exporter, Zespri, growth in American consumer demand this season has been a 'pleasant surprise', says chief executive Jason Te Brake, offsetting to a degree the 10% extra tariff and prompting the global marketer to pump more fruit this year into a market it's been carefully nurturing in recent years. Photo by Jamie Troughton/Dscribe Media. Zespri CEO Jason Te Brake. Photo / Supplied In response to the higher demand, Zespri will this season deliver 13.5 million trays of New Zealand-grown fruit to the US, compared with a record 11.3m trays in the 2024-2025 season, which earned around $280 million (US sales in 2023-2024 were around $206m.) Zespri will also this season launch its recently commercialised RubyRed fruit to the US. The importer of record in the US is getting no hint Trump is eyeing New Zealand for higher tariffs. 'At this stage we don't expect it. I guess things can change but we're not getting any indication there might be more to come,' says Te Brake. 'Actually, we have a bit more faith in the US market. We anticipated there might be a slowdown in consumption or we might have more local product to compete against, but we're not seeing as much of an impact as predicted. 'There's actually been a bit more of a favourable outcome with demand there.' Zespri did not expect to pass the tariff cost on to US customers at this stage. Mount Maunganui-headquartered Zespri recorded global kiwifruit sales of $5.14b in 2024-2025. New Zealand-grown fruit international sales passed $3b. (The grower-owned company also has the Northern Hemisphere to compensate for New Zealand's off-growing season. On the general mood in international food markets after the new tariffs, Te Brake believes nerves have settled after countries 'booked' the likely impacts. 'It feels like it has stabilised quite substantially in the last two months and actually people are just getting on now. I think they're saying, 'Look we don't know what will happen and we'll respond or react once it's happened.'' The US has surpassed Australia as New Zealand's second most important export market, nearly doubling value in the past decade. Last year the US accounted for around 13% of total New Zealand export value, returning $9b from products led by dairy, wine, meat and machinery. When the 10% tariffs were announced by Trump in early April, it was forecast that if fully passed on to American consumers, they could cost New Zealand exporters $900 million more a year and prompt a drop in demand for Kiwi products. Meat exports to the US last year were valued at $2.7b. The Meat Industry Association anticipated the new tariffs would increase producers' costs 17-fold. Kiwi winemakers sell around $750m of wine to the US each year. Their industry body, NZ Wine Growers, reportedly said the new tariff would cost them $75m. On July 8, Trump announced new tariffs of up to 40% on a swathe of countries. New Zealand wasn't on the list. Fonterra's Allen says the exporter was already dealing with 'very significant' US tariffs on most of the products it exports to America. 'Where we had better access was in some of our more specialised protein products. In those products we were already facing really high hurdles – the 10% tariff effectively is additive to that ... on other products there's no kind of blanket tariff. 'Some faced a per metric tonne charge and it was relatively immaterial. Some faced a percentage charge. But for the products we did enjoy relatively good access on, effectively what it means is that the importer of record – that could be our customers or Fonterra, depending on the relationship or the way we bring the product into market – that importer of record will pay 10% on the product.' Allen says it's still early days on the tariffs. 'It's a top five market for us and we've seen some really significant growth in that market over the last few years and we will continue to see it. It will continue to be a really, really important market for us ... this is just what I would call the reality of doing business and working through it with our customers.' Dairy is one of the world's most trade-protected products globally, Allen says. As to the impact of the US tariffs, there's a whole range of factors that go into contract negotiations with markets and customers, he says. 'So now for us going into the US, this is an additional cost. Where that cost sits is just one of the many costs that come into the equation of international negotiation and setting up these multilateral long-term agreements. 'Remember, for a lot of our large contracts with our large partners, these are multi-year agreements and they're multi-faceted in terms of the inputs and the dynamics that go into them.' As to knock-on effects of the US tariffs in Fonterra's other markets, Allen says they're not yet significant. The escalation of tariffs between the US and China had the potential to impact the US dairy industry in its lower-grade lactose and whey product sales. A by-product of the US' major cheese industry, these products went into animal feed in China. But they're not products Fonterra makes in any quantity. 'In that example, most likely the Europeans or the South Americans or someone would have stepped in. 'Dairy has a pretty unique way of rebalancing itself. It's a bit of a balloon. If you poke it somewhere it tends to poke out somewhere else.' But Fonterra is 'watching carefully' the US-Europe relationship and potential for tariffs, Allen says. 'The EU is a major exporting bloc and they do export a pretty significant amount of product into the US. Again, it's anyone's guess as to what actually happens, but that potentially would have more knock-on effects into the globally traded dairy market.' Trump has since threatened a 30% tariff on EU imports. A Fonterra spokesman said it would be speculative to talk about any potential impact on the globally traded dairy market. For Fonterra, the 'explosion' in US consumer demand for protein and protein-fortified beverages in the past five to seven years presents a 'super-important opportunity', he says. 'Protein consumption has gone from the kind of product weightlifters and hardcore fitness people consumed to being now very much an everyday consumption habit for everyday Americans. Everyday foods are becoming protein-fortified.' Fonterra has for years been investing in creating protein that can go into other foods and is good to eat, he says. 'That's where we hold intellectual property. We hold some really important trade secrets and that's where we think our proteins are a huge opportunity. We've seen double-digit growth in that market in the past few years and we will continue to see protein consumption grow in the US. 'It's being spurred on now with the rise of GLP-1 and weight loss drugs.' GLP-1 receptor agonists mimic the effect of the natural GLP-1 hormone, helping to regulate blood sugar and promote weight loss. 'So the US continues to be a top five market for us.' Fonterra-supplied figures sourced from S&P Global show New Zealand dairy exports to the US between and including 2020 and 2024 totalled $5.5b. In 2020 exports were worth $887.5m. In 2024 they rose to $1.35b. With more than 75% of New Zealand's milk market, Fonterra was responsible for the majority of the exports.

Ford Territory Dark Edition: The car for today's family [WATCH]
Standout features on the Ford Territory Dark Edition include black mirrors, a black front grille, with most of the silver trim now black. Ford provided the perfect platform for a fun-filled day with my family, out and about in Johannesburg in the all-new Territory Dark Edition. I have been to many new car launches, and this was the first time a manufacturer gave us the opportunity to bring our loved ones along. The all-new Ford Territory Dark Edition in the four colours it is available in. Picture: Shaun Holland After a wholesome breakfast at our rendezvous point, The Culinary Table in Lanseria, we headed off to our destination: Gold Reef City theme park, a 43km drive to get to know the Dark Edition. What's new on the Ford Territory Dark Edition The vehicle comes in four colour options, but I chose to go for the Ruby Red version because it's The Citizen's colour. They also come in Star White, Panther Black and Lustrous Grey. Some of the standout features include black mirrors, a black front grille and most of the silver trim is replaced with black trim, including the wheels. The feature that stood out the most for me was the new black seats with orange stitching and piping. The interior is where you spend most of your time, so it is important to be comfortable. On our 45-minute journey to the south of Johannesburg, the 1.8 GTDI or EcoBoost provided ample power for my family of four. The car has a host of safety features, such as lane-keeping assist, automatic emergency braking (AEB), and an all-new 360° camera. Some things that do take some getting used to are the razor-sharp brakes and the AEB system, which can be a bit cumbersome. Family fun with the Ford Territory Dark Edition Once we reached our destination, it was time for family fun. We made our first stop at the Oldees Sweet Factory for some treats to keep the kids smiling until lunchtime. The runaway train at the Gold Reef City Theme Park in Johannesburg. Picture: Shaun Holland We then made our way on the runaway train. This was my daughter's first time on an 'adult' ride because she was finally over the required height. My 13-year-old son was scared to go on most of the more thrilling rides, but my daughter was a real champ. After building up our appetites by exploring the theme park for the morning, we made our way to Oldees diner, where we had the most delicious lunch. My family on the raging rapids at Gold Reef City. Picture: Shaun Holland The diner serves a range of themed meals such as burgers, nachos, grills, and some of the most amazing milkshakes with treats on. Best of all, the décor in Oldees diner is all car-themed, and it even boasts a 'Ford Booth' where you and your family can enjoy your meal. After lunch, we went to the big wheel, where you are treated to some of the most spectacular views of the Johannesburg skyline. Traffic is a breeze in the Ford Territory Dark Edition Then it was a much longer trip back to Lanseria, thanks to Johannesburg's peak hour traffic. But I was not complaining because that gave me more time behind the wheel of the Territory Dark Edition. Ford Territory Dark Edition. Picture: Shaun Holland This is where I learnt that I could turn off the annoying AEB, but more importantly, when I looked back into the rear-view mirror and saw my daughter fast asleep on the back seat, I realised the Territory Dark Edition was the perfect car for today's family.
