MARTHA BROUGHTON
Sheep Genetics Manager - Mount Linton
I really love working with dogs, and I always wanted to
work with them in some capacity. When I was younger I
dreamed of roaming the streets with a German Shepherd or
inspecting contraband in an airport with a beagle. I thought
a good stepping stone would be to complete an animal
science degree at Massey. But as I completed more courses
and practical work I realised I wanted to enter the farming
industry, but farm with a difference.
After finishing at Massey, I got a job as a genetics intern at
Mount Linton, a 13,000-plus hectare station, one of the largest
privately-owned properties in New Zealand. A few months
later, I landed my dream role, becoming the Sheep Genetics
Manager.
I’m in charge of breeding and selecting within the two stud
sheep flocks. These flocks are the superior animals to the
other station sheep, the ram progeny produced by these
ewes are sold to other farmers throughout New Zealand and
used at mating for the rest of the stations 40,000 ewes. I’m
also able to keep my passion for training dogs alive as I look
after sheep dogs, so really, I’m getting the best of both worlds.
Out in the field, a good career and doing what I love. I’m not
ready for a desk job just yet.18
