Or you may likely have already as Di has become a familiar face to growers, industry partners and communities across northern Australia through her work with NT Farmers and the Northern Hub.

Originally from NSW, Di and her family made the move north more than 20 years ago, swapping southern life for the Territory's relaxed lifestyle, tropical climate, spectacular landscapes and, as Di puts it, "endless opportunities."

In mid-June, around 75 producers, suppliers, station staff, local businesses, industry leaders, government representatives and members of the East Kimberley Chamber of Commerce gathered in Kununurra for the Kimberley Pilbara Cattlemen's Association (KPCA) Better Beef Forum.

So here is my appeal to industry, I'd like to get out and meet you. I'd like to hear what's happening, what ideas you've been sitting on, and what you've wanted to try but haven't had the time or resources to pursue. I'd like to learn from you and help where I can. Oscar Giudici - Soils Coordinator/ Agronomist

Landowners/ Producers, this is a date you do want to put in your calendar if Natural Capital has been on your radar to find out more about it!

NT Cattlemen’s Association are delivering 'Natural Capital' workshops to the regions in WA and NT to help make sense of "Natural Capital" and give clarity on what opportunities and options are available to producers and landowners.
