On today's REX Daily Podcast, Dom talks with Ron Park, CEO and founder of Canterbury-based health supplements company Kōrure, about winning the 2026 Meat Industry Association Dragon’s Den competition for his 'Kiwi Tender' range of premium New Zealand red meat products with “tongue-soft” texture for elderly or unwell people. They also discuss the process of achieving it and why he's known as the 'Mussel King'... He talks with Marianne Awburn, co-founder of Springarm with husband Ric, about the unique origin story of the popular on-farm accessory in water troughs, winning the Fieldays Innovation Prototype Award in 2021 and the growth of the product since then... And he talks with Natasha and Alan Cave from Rotowai Farms near Te Kuiti about being early adopters of Halter wearable technology, whether it's proven valuable for the farm and the Rotowai Angus stud and Natasha's 2025 Kellogg report, 'Beef on the Brink of a Tech Revolution: Wearables on NZ Hill Country'.
