THE Beef Central, Sheep Central and Grain Central teams are taking a short publishing break over the Christmas/New Year period.

Important news content will continue to be posted to the websites over coming weeks, with weekday news emails to readers recommencing on Monday January 13, 2025.

We would like to take this opportunity to thank our readers and advertisers for their continued valued support in what has been a challenging year for many, and we look forward to keeping the industry informed and up to date through our independent agricultural news service in 2025.

Our ability to deliver original, industry-specific, timely news and important information free-of-charge to a large and growing audience of primary industry stakeholders across Australia and overseas is thanks largely to the strong and continued commercial support we receive of our advertisers. For their backing and commitment we are extremely grateful. The absence of a reader pay-wall on our websites means Beef, Sheep and Grains Centrals’ only source of income is paid advertising. We encourage all readers to support the goods and services advertised on Beef Central.

We hope readers continue to find value in the news and markets intel service we provide and, as always, we welcome any feedback or comments about what we can do better to serve readers’ needs.

We take this opportunity to wish all our valued readers and advertisers a happy and restful Christmas/New Year period and look forward to keeping you well-informed about important industry news and trends in 2025.
