Jake Turner lives on a mixed farming enterprise north of Lake Cargelligo, NSW. He is currently in his first year of a Bachelor of Agricultural Business Management at Charles Sturt University in Wagga Wagga, NSW. Jake’s passion for the beef industry and the Angus breed started at Yanco Agricultural High School where he was actively involved in the cattle showstock team from years 7 to 12. Alongside seven other like-minded people, Jake is stoked to have the opportunity to not only represent Angus Australia at the World Angus Forum, but also Australia’s wider beef industry.
Are you Export Ready?
EXPORT CAPABILITY BUILDING WORKSHOP – GROWING YOUR EXPORTS
The 2025 World Angus Forum will provide Angus Australia members with ample opportunity to have their Angus genetics center stage and show the world that Australian Angus breeders can produce the highest quality beef run sustainably in some of the harshest environments.
To this end the World Angus Forum has teamed up with Investment NSW to run three Export Capability Building Workshops in April and May 2024 (see details below).
This NSW Export Capability Building workshop is aimed at Angus Breeders seeking to initiate export activities, or export-ready breeders looking to consolidate their knowledge and maximise long-term export gains.
This Introduction to exporting workshop is aimed to increase your business’ export-readiness. The workshop will also include a number of informative discussions on topical issues for exporters, including export fundamentals and reviewing your business capacity and capability.
These workshops will cover:
- Update on the 2025 World Angus Forum – Opportunities that may arise as a result and why breeders might be export focused? Genetic scoring across multinational herds and implications/opportunities
- Export Fundamentals & Support – Including, Why Export?; Developing a plan; Developingyour USP; Where to get assistance; Q&A
- Collection of Export Certified Genetic Material – Protocols and procedures that first time exporters should know, collections for particular markets, and who does what.
- Live animal export
- Group Discussion
