Australian grain growers are world leaders in productivity and sustainable farming practices - a position they have achieved by never standing still. Through access to global networks, emerging technologies and new ideas, Australian growers are always seeking opportunities to improve their farming systems and find new ways to produce food for Australia and the rest of the world.

Driven by its vision: “Thriving Australian growers in vibrant communities”, GrainGrowers puts Australian growers at the heart of everything it does.  As a national representative body for Australian grain growers, it works to advocate for growers' interests and support a profitable, sustainable and innovative grains industry. 

AGRITECHNICA AUSTRALIA presents a unique opportunity for growers to access world-leading innovation and expertise at scale on home soil. It also provides a powerful complement to GrainGrowers Innovation Generation conference, helping connect growers with the technologies, partnerships and insights that will shape the future of farming. 

I am delighted to serve on the Advisory Board as a representative of GrainGrowers and its members across the country. I believe this initiative is important because it will accelerate the adoption of innovation, strengthen the competitiveness of Australian agriculture and create new opportunities for growers to learn, connect and thrive. I look forward to helping shape a program that reflects the needs and aspirations of growers today, while supporting where they want to go next.
