From plans to give every school student in Indonesia a free lunch, to a proliferation of high marbling beef brands, this episode of the Week in Beef shows the diversity of markets the Australian beef industry services.
The Australian live export industry is still trying to navigate the agenda of the new Indonesian Government, who has done away with beef quota and given plenty of signals that Australian cattle will be needed. On today’s episode:
- James Nason discusses the bold plan to feed school children and explains how there is still uncertainty about permits
- Australian Brahman Breeders’ Association president Reade Radel explains how a recent steer trial is opening new marketing possibilities for Brahman cattle
- Jon Condon runs us through the development of high marbling beef brands and how processors have become more sophisticated on realising their value
- And, the number of the week segment looks into the cattle on feed numbers, US Government pulling funding for solar panels on farmland and a growth in southern interest for Northern property.
