Beef Central 14/08/2025

FROM cattle in Brisbane to cotton in some of the most remote parts of Australia, this week’s episode of the Week in Beef is covering issues from across the country.

Debate has erupted about how much of Queensland’s Ekka cattle show should be put in front the crowds, with concerns raised about the show starting after the cattle have gone. Plus:

  • AAM managing director Garry Edwards talks about his plans for cropping in the north after a new cotton gin was opened in Kununurra
  • Beef Central publisher Jon Condon talks about a long-term trend towards increasing price volatility in the cattle market
  • We call for listeners to submit their number of the week, by leaving it in the comments section or emailing admin@beefcentral.com
