Canterbury pedigree beef and sheep breeders, the McKerchar family discuss multi-generational farming, succession, and not being afraid to shift direction. It’s clear that being open to different perspectives lies at the heart of family relationships, and their evolving relationship with their soils and livestock.

They talk about building business resilience, the growing interest consumers have in how their food is produced and the substantial benefits of introducing regenerative farming practices. Improvements in livestock health, fertility, and well-being have been substantial, whilst reliance on chemical fertilisers and feed supplements has dropped. It's an open and heart-warming conversation from a family committed to supporting a vibrant farming future and each other.
