The upcoming Meat Profit Day in Albany will present Western Australian red meat producers with innovative ways to improve productivity, as domestic and global demand for their product grows.

With a theme of ‘Growing to meat the future’, the Southern WA Meat Profit Day will be held at the Albany Entertainment Centre on Tuesday, 28 August 2012, and registrations are now open.

The day will include keynote addresses, interactive demonstrations and opportunities to network with other producers and members of the supply chain. The aim of the event is to encourage producers to think outside the box and pick up new ideas to benefit their enterprise.

The morning sessions include ‘From processor to plate: The supply chain story’ and ‘Understanding current and future markets’. The afternoon sessions are‘Building a better business’ and ‘Realising the potential of your flock or herd’.

Export beef industry advisor and Rural Industries Research and Development Corporation’s Rural Woman of the Year, Catherine Marriott and Rob Cook, an industry advocate whose involvement has strengthened despite a helicopter accident that left him a quadriplegic, will be among the guest speakers.

Demonstrations will include MSA beef grading and lamb carcase grading as well as beef rump seaming and how to breakdown a lamb carcase. A technology hub will showcase a ‘Guide to Social Media’, followed later in the day with an insight into using Lambplan/Breedplan.
