Meet our 2019 Committee Members.
Committee member number TWO.
Coadette Low.
I grew up in the Hawkes Bay, before heading to Massey University in 2005. There I completed a BSc in Animal Science and Physiology before heading over to South Australia to work in the Meat Industry. I realised there that I really enjoyed teaching, so changed careers and became an Agricultural Science teacher and also became involved in the showing of cattle. 2016 and it was time for me to come home to NZ. I am the teacher of Agriculture and Agribusiness at Rathkeale College in the Wairarapa. Being a teacher is amazing. I am able to inspire and guide the next generation coming through, and it allows me to share my passion for Agriculture. ... See MoreSee Less

Meet our 2019 Committee Members.
Committee member number ONE.
My name is Hamish Grant. I live in Hawkes Bay and work for PGG Wrightson in the Waipukarau store.
I was first involved in Future Beef as a competitor in 2012 and competed for the next few years until I was to old to compete then joining the executive committee in 2016. Being apart of Future Beef has taught me alot. As a competitor I learnt alot such as feeding stock to learning about breaking in and work with cattle. It also provided many industry contacts that have been invaluable throughout my career. A real high light for me also is the friends you make for life that have the same passion as yourself.
I am really excited about the future of Future Beef and the support we have from farmers and businesses.
If you are in Hawkes Bay and are interested in being apart of it even if you are not from a farming back ground or want to know more please feel free to get in contact with our coordinator Isabelle for my contact details. ... See MoreSee Less
