Updates from the Special Representative for Australian Agriculture

The Special Representative is passionate about Australian agriculture and believes we produce some of the best agricultural products in the world in our own unique environment.

Her role is to promote this internationally, demonstrating our production practices to trading partners and advocating for a no-one-size-fits-all approach to climate-smart sustainable agriculture policy.

A key outcome of this advocacy is to bring information gained overseas back to Australia; to share with Australian industry, universities, NGOs and businesses to ensure they have the latest information to be prepared for changing global requirements.

Keep up to date with news from key events on this page, and join the Special Representative’s quarterly virtual meetings for a direct open dialogue opportunity by emailing specialrepresentative@aff.gov.au.
