Show by Beef Central
In this episode of The Week in Beef: We join you from BeefEx, Australia's flagship grain fed beef industry event, run by the Australian Lot Feeders Association, held every two years. The conference brings together the entire grain fed supply chain, from lot feeders and service providers to processors, exporters, researchers and government, for three days of learning, innovation and networking. ALFA President Grant Garey explains why a focus at this year's event has been on recognising the industry as a critical part of national security. Hear from winners of the 2026 Australian Feedlot of the Year awards, Waggaba feedlot manager Melinda Fanning and Sapphire Feedlot's James Guest. ALFA Young Lot Feeder of the Year Zac McGee shares his passion for the industry and the issue he thinks will be a priority for the future. And why the Carmichael family built a feedlot - hear from Ben and Teek Carmichael.
