What an amazing time at #Livexchange2019 Townsville hearing about the many jobs in Indonesia created by co-grazing cattle under Palm plantations. "This is not just about making money from animals, it is so much more than that"

Thanks ⁦@SheepCollective⁩ for showing me around the Al Massilah today. As a farmer, it was good to see first hand the inside of the ship - the water, feed and ventilation in action, and to see the sheep in their pens on board. I hope others will take up the opportunity.

We often concentrate on the 'how' of GM crops - this story explains the 'why'. Public discussions had and policies made in developing countries impact far beyond our own borders. theconversation.com/i-fight-…

I fight anti-GMO fears in Africa to combat hunger

Predictions suggest that Africa will suffer dramatic losses of crops and productive land as the climate warms. Perhaps adopting GM crops designed to tolerate stress can save the continent from famine.

Joining some Aussie cattle for breakfast in Vietnam. Great talking to the locals involved in the industry over here who respect how serious we take our Animal welfare. How great is it to be a part of an industry that feeds hungry tummy’s all over the world?
