Open Days
East Coast Regional Supreme Winner Open Day – Matangi Station
28 Apr 2026
Jamie and Nicky Gaddum of Matangi Station
Matangi Station is a powerful example of farming through change. Following Cyclone Gabrielle, the business has reset to take greater control of its supply chain – from farming through to a boutique butchery in Hastings.
Across their 950ha operation, the team combines technology, data, and practical farming to lift productivity while protecting the environment – from Halter collars and drone monitoring to native planting, erosion control, and solar-powered water systems.
Come along to:
- See systems in action
- Gain practical insights
- Hear firsthand how the business has adapted and diversified
