@ANZ_AU bankers and ANZ Board on the road this week in Queensland. Great for everyone to hear of the generational success of Qualipac in the highly productive Lockyer Valley.

The aquaculture 🐟 and dairy 🐄 sectors led strong Tassie agricultural exports after COVID says Madaline Swan from @ANZ_AU. #ABARESROC

But how is your lawn looking 🤔

[Peter Karam @Pete_Karam]

Our first rose of the season. It’s done a good job given all the rain dumped on it. Let’s see how it copes with another 20mm each of tonight, tomorrow and Saturday ☹️. Plenty more blooms are about to appear over coming days, weeks and months. 🌹🌹

Great insight from ANZ’s @bennett2_mark on the demand for fine wool despite the recent dip during challenging economic conditions. #ABARESROC #agchatoz

Great to be back in Tasmania this week for #Agfest2022. So much #agribusiness opportunity. The @ANZ_AU team proudly supporting growth in this fantastic landscape.

[Mark Bennett @bennett2_mark]

@ANZ_AU at the GIAV & SFMCA industry forum in Moama NSW. It’s been an incredible run, but will it last beyond this season? Probably not to the same levels. Plenty of new and challenging considerations but it’s still a glass half full industry outlook.

After significant growth over the past few years we are investing heavily in the business, starting with a brand new Agri Business Mgr role based in the Lower Great Southern (Albany, Katanning or Narrogin). Cont..

Honoured to be part of the #GlobalFoodForum in Melbourne, and to have the opportunity to discuss global food supply chains and dynamics with @HoskingBrett and Eric Johnston.
An excellent day of expert speakers, challenging opinions and frank discussion across this vital sector.

Solid growth in domestic consumption and increased production capacity will bear fruit for Australia’s #berry industry. @ANZ_AU's Madeleine Swan picks through the data. READ MORE: https://t.co/BIaScG6LhZ

Magnificent day to be out in East Gippsland today with the @ANZ_AU team and @jd0054 speaking dairy, beef and all things agribusiness with leading local farmers and industry. Rising costs front of mind, but strength of commodity prices and season/water = glass half full.

[John Droppert @jd0054]

Back at the old stomping ground in the MID (and the sunshine) with @ANZ_AU and @bennett2_mark

[bluenotes @ANZ_bluenotes]

The newly signed #freetradeagreement between Australia and India will create opportunities for growth in parts of the local agri industry. @ANZ_AU's @AirportFarming and @bennett2_mark call out the benefits. READ MORE: https://t.co/XuQPxICpVv

Pulses set to grow in reduced crop area: ANZ - Grain Central https://t.co/v96ZVdcZOa
An early wet break might change things a little (let’s hope!) but input costs and availability might potentially temper both acreage and yield potential this year.

While prices for #AgriCommodities may start to level after some of the extraordinary peaks of 2021, they remain historically very high across the board. @ANZ_AU's @Bennett2_Mark and @AirportFarming harvest the data https://t.co/ReChG77DGj

Agri commodity prices remain historically strong. Click the link for the latest from @ANZ_AU on soft commodity prices and key economic coverage. 2022 looks to offer continuing opportunity. Let's hope the season also plays it's part.
