Date: 2020-06-01

This is a two part webinar featuring Simon Quilty, and brought to you by Local Land Services. Simon is an independent global beef analyst with over 30 years of industry experience. He will be bringing Northern Tablelands and North Coast livestock producers the most up to date information on the factors influencing future livestock prices.
Given the complexity of global markets, as COVID-19 impacts consumer demand in many ways, Simon will look to map out some the current challenges that exist in exporting meat around the world and the impact these challenges will have on cattle and lamb prices for the next two years. Simon will look to present his livestock price forecasts and explain how he arrived at these numbers and with the livestock officers talk about farming strategies during this period.
