I’m not a big conference person but I like the grassroots approach of Food Futures events run by NT Farmers. I’ve attended the Darwin conference and Gulf Farming hosted a regional roadshow in 2019. We’ve all got a lot to learn from each other in developing northern agriculture. Food Futures events have helped me make the linkages I need to make northern agriculture succeed. See you at Food Futures 2021, in Darwin.

Developing northern agriculture is a difficult and expensive task even when all elements are running well.  Strong co-operation is a pre-requisite to success. Food Futures conferences and road -shows help make th e contacts and linkages we need to develop northern agriculture. I’ll be a speaker at Food Futures 2021, see you in Darwin.

NT farmers have done a great job of Food Futures Conferences and Roadshows. I can highly recommend the Food Futures Conference 2021 in Darwin for those interested in developing agriculture in northern Australia. I’ll be speaking at Food Futures 2021 on my passion, developing irrigated fodder crops.

My Department has been a proud financial sponsor of Northern Australia Food Futures since its inception in 2014. We are financial sponsors of Food Futures 2021. The event's success comes from bringing together everyone involved with northern agriculture – politicians, government agencies, farmers and agribusiness, from NT, WA, Queensland and Nationally.  It’s a great opportunity to meet and discuss the development of agriculture across northern Australia. I strongly recommend everyone interested in northern agriculture to attend Food Futures 2021.
