The annual WagyuEdge Conference and Tour will get underway in just under two weeks. The conference is a mecca for the global Wagyu industry examining important sections of our industry over two and half days.
Industry leaders from Australia and internationally have been invited to be a part of the speaker lineup to tackle some of the important topics the industry has been discussing such as:
- Australia’s position in the global Wagyu sector post-COVID (insights, trends and opportunities)
- How technology is able to assist you in the field
- Opportunities for Wagyu in a carbon future
- Perspectives from international breeders about the Wagyu sector, and
- The latest research into Wagyu traits, commercial application of this research and future directions
Hosted by the AWA on behalf of our members, the conference is a platform for the broader Wagyu sector to gather, learn and network to deepen business relationships and extend our knowledge to advance Wagyu as the world’s luxury beef.
