Red meat industry IMPACT webinar series now available

A series of webinars that discuss how the red meat and livestock industry continues to unlock value from existing programs and deliver on new initiatives to ensure future prosperity are now available online, following the conclusion of Meat & Livestock Australia’s (MLA) annual updates series.

MLA Managing Director, Jason Strong, said the past five weeks had provided a fantastic opportunity to update stakeholders throughout the red meat supply chain on key programs of work that demonstrate how industry was creating impact through investments that drive towards the goal of doubling the value of red meat sales by 2030.

“From genetics and genomics, objective measurement and processing automation, world-leading integrity systems and ground-breaking marketing campaigns, there have been a number of game-changing innovations and achievements that have contributed to the red meat industry’s success,” Mr Strong said.

“In this series, our panellists also talk about how as an industry we plan to be bolder, aim higher, tackle complex challenges and maintain a razor-sharp focus on the end game.

“We saw high attendance at the live webinars this year with a lot of interest in the topics as well as some great Q&A sessions. I’d encourage anyone in the industry to go online to watch the recordings and as always, we’d be happy to hear any feedback.”
