At 10am this morning a new event was launched at the Toowoomba Showgrounds. The company behind the inaugural Queensland Beef Expo believe that the timing for this initiative is perfect. The event will focus primarily on the production and supply of beef from this region and Bob Carroll from Australian Events said that the event will create a major focus on the beef industry across the South West. “I am pleased to be returning to the field day industry but this event has a very definite focus. Pretty soon 80% of Australian produce will be exported and with the inaugural Cathay Pacific Freight Jumbo flying out of Wellcamp Brisbane West airport yesterday the scene is now set for a revolution in the way produce and in particular, Beef, is farmed and prepared for export”.
The event will feature the inaugural Spring Classic All Breeds Sale with input and management from Elders and Landmark in conjunction with the Royal Agricultural Society of Queensland. There will also be a series of seminars, workshops and industry functions with high calibre speakers and presenters.
Some of the topics will include Feed Lotting, Live Exports, Packaged Beef Export as well as Safety and Better Work Practices on the Farm. Another key initiative of the event will be to create a Youth Development Program. The program will encourage active youth involvement within the Beef Industry through a range of interactive displays and conference activity. A Led Steer Competition will be an important part of that program. The event will get under way on Wednesday afternoon 31st August 2016 with the Led Steer Competition and seminars.
The Spring Classic All Breeds Sale will take place on Thursday with Expo displays and other activity running Thursday through Saturday.
