Emerging northern beef leaders are invited to apply for an exclusive, behind-the-scenes supply chain experience taking place later this year.

Angus Australia, in partnership with the Northern Territory Cattlemens Association and Teys Australia, is seeking applications for the 2026 Northern Beef Leadership Initiative called “Find Your Northern Edge” – an immersive leadership and supply chain tour designed to develop the next generation of industry leaders.

Applicants do not necessarily have to have an Angus breed affiliation to participate.

Running from 26–30 October in Queensland, the program will bring together 12 young industry stakeholders aged 18-40 for a fully-hosted experience exploring key stages of the beef supply chain, from feedlot and processing through to export and global markets.

Participants will gain direct access to industry-leading operations including Teys Condamine feedlot, Teys Beenleigh processing facility and the Port of Brisbane, while also engaging with senior industry leaders and taking part in leadership development sessions.

Angus Australia CEO Scott Wright said the program provides an important opportunity to broaden industry understanding.

“Programs like this give young people the opportunity to step outside the farm gate and see how the entire beef supply chain works, building stronger, more informed leaders for the future of our industry.”

The majority of the program expenses will be covered.

Applications close Friday 11 September.
