Morgan Easton

"Morgan was appointed to the trust in October 2023.

Morgan grew up on a family farm in the Waitaki Valley and went on to study at Lincoln and Cornell Universities for his Bachelor of Agricultural Science.

He worked as a dairy industry consulting officer for 18 months before undertaking a Master of Science in Agricultural Economics at Purdue University, Indiana, on a Fulbright Scholarship.

Morgan and his wife Hayley now dairy farm on the Waitaki plains – where there is a continually growing demand for electricity as farmers move from border-dyke irrigation to spray."
