B+LNZ’s Generation Next programme – Northland farmer Jake Herron

Jake Herron was ready to leave the sheep and beef industry and lost his confidence before completing the Beef + Lamb New Zealand Generation Next Programme back in 2019. He has recently made a big move from Central Otago to Northland for his dream farm. Jake caught up with B+LNZ’s National Extension Programme Manager Olivia Weatherburn to share how a mentor and networking has helped him to where he is today.
