Following the success of the 2005 Young Beef Producers Forum, a second forum will be staged again in Roma, QLD, on Thursday the 16th & Friday the 17th of November this year.

Last year’s forum attracted 86 young participants from not only cattle enterprises, but also a wide range of people from companies servicing the beef industry.

This year’s forum will follow a similar theme to that of last year, however, reinvention of topics, fresh ideas and new developments will be incorporated, to ensure the continued success
of the Forum, and allow participants to once again receive value for money.

Once again, participants will have the great opportunity of listening to a group of high profile speakers presenting seminars on worthwhile areas including production/marketing, business,
family communication and health, and policy issues & legislation affecting the Australian beef.

This event is an invaluable opportunity for you, as an Angus Youth member to broaden your horizons, expand your knowledge and meet new people. The Roma Cup will be held on Saturday 18th November, so stay an extra day for a great time at the races!

Be watching out for more details in the next Angus Youth newsletter! If you want to know more about this great event, or anything else related to QLD Angus Youth, please contact me.

Queensland Angus Youth is alive and well with a great support network to keep young cattle enthusiasts progessing. This year Queensland’s Angus Youth ambassador Jack Moore of ‘Grassmere’, Mitchell, has been making the rounds to several schools and colleges promoting what Angus Youth has to offer.

Jack was also the recipient of the New England Travel New Zealand Exchange Scholarship and will make his way to New Zealand in October and November.

The Young Beef Breeders Information Day (YBBID) will head north this year to Roma in November. Conducted over two days, the event aims to be very market-orientated at all sectors of the supply chain and will also cover succession planning.
