FOLLOWING a trip through Western Queensland watching the dozens of trucks transporting cattle through the area, the Week in Beef gives an insight into the newest display at the Longreach Stockman’s Hall of Fame.
Alongside the induction of Beef Central’s Jon Condon and ABC Landline’s Peter Lewis into the Rural Press Club Hall of Fame, a display was unveiled for late industry leader Zanda McDonald who tragically passed away in 2013.
The Week in Beef plays some of the audio you can hear at Zanda McDonald’s display. Plus:
- Jon Condon talks about the import of United States beef into Australia for the first time in 22 years.
- North Qld butcher Doug Cross tells us about his plans with Innisfail abattoir, which has been out of action for almost 20 years.
- The number of the week looks weather forecasts, drunk cows and processing capacity in Qld.
Available every Thursday afternoon on the Beef Central website, or via YouTube, Apple Podcasts, Spotify, Audible, I Heart Radio, Podbean and other podcast platforms. Search for: The week in beef and click subscribe.
