GENERATION

ANGUS

FOR BETTER BALANCED BEEF

The future of any industry lies in the enthusiasm of the next generation – and in the Angus world we aim to start ’em at any age!

Generation Angus is a pathway for AngusNZ’s exciting and innovative next generation.

From events, education and development through to scholarships and exchange programmes, Generation Angus provides numerous opportunities for young enthusiasts to pursue a future in farming. If you’re a not-so-young farmer with youngsters at foot, think about encouraging them to take up some of the opportunities on offer. Showing cattle can also be a great introduction to livestock farming, and there’s a load of fun to be had.
