Wondering how to meet like-minded people or take the next step in your ag career? Want to feel part of something bigger than just your day-to-day job? You’re not alone - and there is a way to build your network, grow your skills, and find your place in the sector.

In this episode of Talking Dairy, we’re exploring the power of community and how NZ Young Farmers is helping young people in the ag sector feel supported, connected, and inspired.

We’re joined by Waikato farmer Robin Buser, who made a move from corporate life to dairy farming - and found his “farming family” through NZ Young Farmers. He shares how saying yes to joining a club changed the game for him, both personally and professionally.

Also with us is Lynda Coppersmith, CEO of NZ Young Farmers, who reflects on how the organisation has evolved to support the next generation and why partnerships - like the one with DairyNZ - are key to building a stronger future for dairy.

In this episode, you’ll hear:

  • How Robin built confidence, community, and direction through his local NZ Young Farmers club
  • What NZ Young Farmers is doing to support today’s young people in ag
  • Why joining NZ Young Farmers can be a win for both employees and employers
  • What’s next for NZ Young Farmers
  • Why now is the perfect time to get involved

Whether you’re just starting out, keen to grow your leadership skills, or looking to back the next wave of talent - this episode is for you.
