What was in this mornings edition of The Farmers Club.

This podcast is a little different; it’s from a panel we were involved in during the Farmers Day Out at Ballarat in late March.
The lineup included:
Lachie McKenzie - Founder of McKenzie Ag - Panel Facilitator.
Brooke Dawson - CEO of Oakdale Meat Co.
Phil McFarlane - CEO of Australian Plant Proteins.
Alistair Ham - Founder of Windemere Oilseeds.
Dwain Duxson - Founder of The Farmers Club
The quality of a panel podcast depends on the quality of the questions asked, and Lachie McKenzie didn’t let us down in that department. Take a listen on Apple Podcasts here, and over at Spotify here.

From Episode 23 onwards, our podcasts can only be heard if you are a paid subscriber to The Farmers Club. Sign up here.
