Join us for a conversation with Dr. Richard Eckard, Professor of Carbon Farming at the University of Melbourne and National Program Leader at the Carbon Research Centre for Net Zero Agriculture. Richard is the mind behind Australia’s first carbon accounting tools, which is now the recognised standard in Australia for measuring on-farm carbon. Accredited globally, Richard was named one of the world’s top 1,000 climate scientists by Reuters in 2021. He’s also a trusted advisor to governments across Australia, New Zealand, the UK, and Europe, as well as global organisations like the UN FAO and the International Livestock Research Institute. "The way I think of carbon farming is: how can we become more efficient at capturing photosynthesis and turning it into a product we can send out to the market?" Our conversation dives into what carbon accounting actually means in a farming context, why it's becoming critical for every farm business, and how good production farming is synonymous with low carbon farming. Richard unpacks some of the more common misunderstandings in the carbon farming space.

Join us as we sit down with Matt Dalgleish, agricultural market analyst, co-host of the AgWatchers Podcast, and founder of Episode 3, to explore the key forces shaping today’s commodity landscape. With a background in financial markets spanning equities, metals, and foreign exchange, Matt brings a sharp, data-driven lens to the world of ag. Since transitioning into agricultural market analysis in 2015, he’s become one of the most trusted voices in the field, regularly quoted in the press for his independent take on global trends. In this episode, we explore everything from geopolitical shocks and supply chain friction to market volatility and risk management. Matt shares insights on how shifting consumer trends are influencing the beef and lamb markets, and what grain growers need to watch as global trade tensions rise. This conversation is all about making sense of the chaos and navigating uncertainty with clarity and confidence.

Join us as we sit down with Ben Farmer, a lucerne grower and chair of the Executive Committee for Lucerne Australia, to unpack the complexities of the lucerne industry and the impact of S&W Seeds Australia entering voluntary administration. We explore how this collapse has affected growers in Keith, South Australia—a region that produces 85% of Australia’s lucerne seed—and the ripple effects on the broader industry. Ben breaks down the specialised nature of lucerne farming, the unique relationships between growers, plant breeders, seed buyers, and global markets, and why the failure of S&W Seeds has had such a massive financial impact. This conversation is packed with insights into the double-edged sword of plant variety rights, market power, risk management, and resilience—plus the lessons growers are learning as they navigate this crisis.
