During February, our Extension Team, Catriona Millen and Fiona Macarthur delivered a series of BREEDPLAN workshops across New Zealand, and we’re thrilled with the response from producers.

• 9.25/10 average workshop rating
• 100% of attendees would recommend the workshop to others

Here’s what participants had to say:

• “Loved it! Such an informative and interesting day- I learnt a lot. Every breeder needs to do this workshop!”
• “A great workshop, thank you. Feeling much more confident in my knowledge and looking forward to using performance data to its full potential.”

A huge thank you to PBBNZ for hosting us and helping coordinate such well‑run and energising events. It was also incredibly valuable to meet with the PBBNZ team in person and continue strengthening our collaboration as we work together to help cattle producers maximise their herds’ genetic potential.

NZ Herd Visits
While in New Zealand, we also had the privilege of visiting several herds. Thank you to the producers who welcomed us onto their properties and shared insights into their impressive enterprises.

We’re excited about the opportunities ahead and look forward to continuing to support industry development and long‑term sustainability across the region.
