Vegalogue is a regular podcast from vegetable, potato and onion industry peak body, AUSVEG, where we examine the pressing issues and latest developments in our sector.

Join us as we discuss the many diverse facets of commercial vegetable production in Australia with growers, industry figures, researchers and many more of the incredible people who make up our vibrant sector.

With the new mandatory Food and Grocery Code of Conduct set to commence on 1 April 2025, and the ACCC Supermarket Inquiry due to report at the end of February, the Australian grocery sector is undergoing significant scrutiny. This episode, the first of a two-parter, delves into the evolving power dynamics between growers and retailers, and how the new Code aims to create a fairer and more sustainable supply chain.

Neil Rechlin, Director of NextGen Group, brings over 20 years of experience in developing category and capability solutions. He shares his insights on the impact of the new Code, the changes it introduces, and what it means for vegetable producers. Neil also discusses the potential for civil penalties, the importance of understanding the Code’s protections, and how it could reshape the grower-retailer relationship.

Keep an eye out next month for part two of this interview.

Cardiac Cowboys

Cardiac Cowboys

The heart was always off-limits to surgeons. Cutting into it spelled instant death for the patient. That is, until a ragtag group of doctors scattered across the Midwest and Texas decided to throw out the rule book. Working in makeshift laboratories and home garages, using medical devices made from scavenged machine parts and beer tubes, these men and women invented the field of open heart surgery. Odds are, someone you know is alive because of them. So why has history left them behind? Presented by Chris Pine, CARDIAC COWBOYS tells the gripping true story behind the birth of heart surgery, and the young, Greatest Generation doctors who made it happen. For years, they competed and feuded, racing to be the first, the best, and the most prolific. Some appeared on the cover of Time Magazine, operated on kings and advised presidents. Others ended up disgraced, penniless, and convicted of felonies. Together, they ignited a revolution in medicine, and changed the world.
