“We are pleased to announce that Annie has been selected for the Angus Foundation ‘Beyond the Beef’ Zoetis Angus National Conference Scholarship. The aim of this scholarship is to increase the recipient’s knowledge of the Angus Australia breed society and the beef industry as a whole, allow Annie the opportunity to network with industry professionals and overall develop her personal skills,” said Angus Australia Extension Manager Jake Phillips.
“Through the application process it was clear that Annie was passionate about the beef industry and has clear aspirations to expand her knowledge of the industry across the supply chain, particularly in breeding and genetics. I believe that the conference will be an excellent opportunity for her within personal and professional development.”
Annie looks forward to the experience and what can be learnt through attending the conference.
“I am always looking for new opportunities to learn and to better my program and industry,” she said. “I also believe the conference will have a direct impact on improvements and changes to my herd and in turn down the line to our clients’ commercial herds that supply the industry with better Angus and Angus influenced beef.”
