About Marius Van Aarde:
I grew up on a grain and livestock farm (500ha). I became very interested in the livestock/animal sector. On the farm I took care of sheep, cattle and chickens. I decided to go study animal breeding at one of the best colleges in South Africa and received numerous awards.
After my studies I worked for a year in Australia. 6 months in Western Australia and 6 months in Queensland. Both was on big sheep farms.
In 2015 I started working as a livestock marketer for BKB Ltd. In the beginning I thought I would be working a lot with animals, but instead I worked mostly with people/farmers. That helped me to develop my people skills tremendously.
