Mat Korteweg: Mud, Calving and the Countdown to Mating

 

We head to South Otago for another catch-up with dairy farmer Mat Korteweg as a wet spring continues to test farmers across the south. We chat about the final stretch of calving, keeping cows in top condition ahead of mating season, and what life on farm looks like when the mud just keeps coming. Plus, with the footy boots set to be hung up, is a coaching clipboard about to take their place?
