Episode 239. Steven and Rebecca Cadzow

This episode was recorded as part of a Centralian Land Management Association project – which they have kindly shared with our listeners

In this episode, we chat with Steve and Bec Cadzow from Mt Riddock Station. The Cadzow family ventured into pastoralism more than 60 years ago with the purchase of a cattle station in the Northern Territory—despite having no prior experience living or working in the region.

Today, they’re widely respected for their high-quality Poll Hereford herd and forward-thinking approach to land management. While much has changed since Steve’s parents first arrived in the Territory, some things have stayed the same: they work hard, work smart, and always do what’s best for the land.

To start our conversation, I asked Steve how his family came to own a cattle station in the heart of the outback.
