    Sustainability is top of mind for the Young Farmer of the Year


    22-year-old dairy farmer George Dodson was crowned the winner last night after the three-day competition in Hamilton.

    Seven young farmers' quick thinking, practical know-how and farming skills were put to the test.

    Dodson says sustainability has to be at the forefront of what he wants to achieve.
