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.
The Neogen World Angus Forum will be taking place at the Brisbane Convention & Exhibition Centre (BCEC) on Wednesday the 7th and Thursday the 8th of May 2025.
Introduction
With a theme of ‘Beef for a Better Planet’, the forum will provide delegates with insight into the latest technology, genetics and innovation available within the beef industry, and explore the concepts and challenges of the Australian Beef Industries quest for Carbon Neutral 2030.
It will also be the perfect opportunity for delegates to network and interact with each other and with the trade display exhibitors.
