Many Roads Lead to Ag

There’s no single path into agriculture and this panel proves it!  Hosted by Tom Boyle, the session brought together three incredible voices who’ve each taken different journeys into ag:  

• Sarah Hain, who has worked across Australia and internationally before returning to her family’s Merino, cattle, and goat operation near Longreach.  

• Tom Copley, a seedstock producer and lawyer balancing careers in ag and law, with a passion for the beef industry’s future.  

• Winnie Batt, who alongside her husband Ian, run a contract fencing business and their cattle property near Muttaburra.  

Together, they share the lessons they’ve learned, the challenges they’ve faced, and the opportunities that come from choosing a life in agriculture, no matter the road that leads you there.
