SUMMARY:Webinar: Tips & tricks to manage common risks in farming… including the ones you haven’t thought of!
DESCRIPTION:Let’s be real. Even though farming is who we are and what we do\, there’s no doubt it’s a risky business to be in. \nIf your farm could talk what would it say about risk? From the weather\, to production risks\, finances\, family succession\, workplace health and safety\, and staff – a potential risk is always just around the corner. \nBut what if there was a way to lower this risk? With the mindset to expect the unexpected\, we can respond and pivot faster to anything life throws at us\, building a stronger business along the way. \nJoin Rebecca Fing\, from House Paddock Consulting for this three-part short course where she will guide you in a practical\, down to earth way on how you might go about identifying your specific business risks and developing your plan B\, C or even D! \n\nBusiness Risks – Financial viability\, market risks\nInfrastructure Risks – Aging infrastructure\, extreme weather\, water quality\, environmental risks\nHorticulture Operations Risks – Climate and biosecurity risks\nCaring for Our Land – Land conditions\, water security\nPeople & Workforce Risks – WHS\, key personnel\, and family succession risks\n\nActivity: Identify three-to-five things you can do immediately to improve these risks in your business. Consider three things you want more information about… bring them to the Q&A session.

SUMMARY:Webinar: Optimising Trade for the Australian Vegetables Industry
DESCRIPTION:This 1-hour webinar will explore key findings from Vegetable and Onion levy-funded project MT24001 focused on understanding Australia’s vegetable export capabilities and how they stack up against global competitors. It will provide insights into where Australia can learn from others to streamline operations and boost export success in key markets. \nAs part of the webinar\, participants will be introduced to market factsheets developed for six priority export destinations: Singapore\, United Arab Emirates\, Indonesia\, Vietnam\, Taiwan\, and Spain. These factsheets outline important considerations for exporters\, offering foundational knowledge to support market entry and growth. \nThe project was delivered by KPMG and involved identifying opportunities for the Australian onion and vegetable industry in both existing and emerging export markets. KPMG conducted detailed analysis on logistics costs\, supply chain management\, and government support\, benchmarking Australia’s performance against global competitors to highlight areas for improvement and opportunity. \nThe global trade landscape has shifted in the time between the final report and this webinar. As such\, this webinar will include discussion around the recent USA trade policies and tariffs with a focus on the impacts for the Australian onion and vegetable industry. \n\nThis project has been funded by Hort Innovation\, using the Vegetable and Onion Fund research and development levy and contributions from the Australian Government. Hort Innovation is the grower-owned\, not-for-profit research and development corporation for Australian horticulture.
