The development of the New Zealand veterinary club system in the mid‐twentieth century departs from more conventional views of what constitutes professionalisation. It is studied here by examining the cautious contestation between farmers and veterinarians in expanding and controlling the provision of rural veterinary services. In describing the growth and consolidation of the club movement the concepts of state mediation and occupational heteronomy provide the theoretical context. A managed co‐operative rivalry was articulated in the structures and rhetorics of the farming community and veterinary profession, both groups gaining benefit from the club system. As control mechanisms changed, these structures and occupational discourses adapted in resistance or accommodation to the changing influences over the supply and consumption of veterinary care
