AS part of Beef Central’s coverage of this week’s Beef 2024 event in Rockhampton, the industry’s national exhibition held every three years, we present our special daily podcast series, Trendsetters.

Today’s third episode features Zero Net Emissions from Agriculture CRC chief executive, Richard Heath.

The ZNE-Ag CRC was brokered by The University of Queensland and the Queensland Department of Agriculture and Fisheries, with a consortium of 73 partners across industry, government and education.

The Australian Government’s CRC contribution of $87 million is the largest in the program’s history.

Mr Heath says ZNE-Ag will support the industry to achieve emissions targets in Australian agriculture by 2030 and 2050.

Coming up in this series: US National Cattlemens Beef Association president Mark Eisele and former MLA chair, NFF president and AACo director David Crombie reflecting on 200 years of AAco.

This week’s Trendsetters special podcast series is brought to readers and listeners by Colliers Agribusiness.
