Cattle producers are invited to help shape the future of the grassfed cattle industry by sharing their views on the work priorities of the new national peak body, Cattle Australia.
Designed to address system-wide changes in the industry over recent decades and the threat of future challenges, Cattle Australia will represent the interests of all Australian cattle producers and provide them with a unified, visible, and influential voice.
Andrew Macaulay, Independent Chair of the Restructure Steering Committee, said that this consultation period was critical in ensuring that Cattle Australia can realise its vision of supporting industry growth and empowering producers.
“Cattle Australia will unite levy payers and engage with cattle producers and industry stakeholders, so that it can advocate on important matters to the industry, lead and direct policy development and its implementation, and protect the profitability, competitiveness and future of the cattle industry,” said Mr Macaulay.
“However, to achieve this we need to hear from producers on what areas of work Cattle Australia should focus on and where it should direct investment to support growth. I encourage cattle producers and other invested stakeholders to share their thoughts so that Cattle Australia can effectively represent the interests of producers and strengthen the grass-fed sector and broader beef cattle industry.”
