This week Country Life meets the O'Malleys who've scrimped and saved to buy an 80-hectare dairy farm on the West Coast. With their "licorice allsorts" herd, they're loving the new challenge. The team also find out about a new form of agricultural training in NZ without classrooms or a campus and meet a forester making the most of his 30 year old exotic plantation.
