FOLLOWING a trip to Mount Surprise in North Queensland, this week’s podcast follows the livestock transport industry’s call for producers to up their standards with cattle loading.

In a showcase of what can be done, former producer and livestock transporter John Lethbridge has used his retirement to create the perfect loading ramp. In this episode:

  • John Lethbridge explains how the ramp works and his nephew Russell Lethbridge says it is time for the industry to follow suit
  • Public Service Association assistant secretary Troy Wright says hundreds of job cuts in the NSW ag department will have a huge impact on the industry
  • Qld assistant minister for primary industries Sean Dillon urges southern producers to keep a look out for ticks
  • The number of the week looks at the value of a 40-foot container of beef, virtual fencing collars and the numbers heading through Australia’s biggest selling centre.

The Week in Beef is sponsored by Rabobank, Australia's most recommended agri bank in 2025.
