Justin Ruygrok
REPRESENTING THE NORTHERN REGION
Age: 29
Occupation: Dairy Farmer
Club: Franklin Young Farmers
Justin Ruygrok is a 29-year-old sharemilker from the Northern region returning for his second FMG Young Farmer of the Year Grand Final. After competing last year, he’s back with more experience and a calmer, more focused approach.
He runs a 170-cow dairy operation while working towards his long-term goal of farm ownership. Most of his preparation has come from day-to-day farming, alongside targeted revision of weaker areas identified from last year.
Justin is active in his local Young Farmers club and values the strong community support around him. Outside of farming, he enjoys fishing and time on the water.
Vote for Northern in the FMG Region-Off
The Northern region has a strong, diverse farming community - from dairy to horticulture, sheep and beef to cropping - that is driven by hardworking, down-to-earth people who genuinely support one another.
Outside of farming, we’re lucky to live in one of the best parts of the country, with great weather year-round and an unbeatable outdoor lifestyle. Whether it’s fishing, hunting, or time at the beach after work, there’s always something to do, making it easy to work hard but still enjoy life outside the farm.
When you vote for Northern, you’re voting to support Blood Cancer NZ and the Northern team.
