WITH the World Angus Forum now just under two years away, planning and organising is well underway for the two-week event, set for late April to early May 2021.

Australia will host the event for the first time since the enormous success of the 1997 World Angus Forum hosted by Angus Australia, with an extensive program in store for delegates.

The Forum will begin with a welcome function in Sydney, followed by a pre-tour winding through the central west of New South Wales, showcasing world class Angus properties along with one of Australia’s best-known food and wine regions.

The main event will see a technical forum hosted in the nation’s capital of Canberra, ACT, where delegates will be privy to all things Angus, here and abroad, as well as looking into what technologies we can expect to be taking us into the future in the agricultural world.

Following the Forum, the post tour will travel from Toowoomba, Qld to Rockhampton allowing delegates to experience the northern beef-producing region and the work of Angus producers are doing in sub-tropical areas of Australia.

The tour will round up at Beef Australia 2021, the southern hemisphere’s largest beef exposition.
