00:00Hi I'm Olivia Lawson and I'm Stud Co-Principal here at Paringa Livestock at Clarks Hill,
00:05Victoria. I am very honoured to be nominated for the Australian Agriculture Award. That was
00:11a nice surprise. So we have been running Paringa Livestock for almost 30 years and spread across
00:19a couple of different locations in central Victoria. We have a Pilgrim Angus herd, a Red Angus herd
00:25and a stabiliser composite herd. We breed stabilisers in blood and red for different parts of Australia
00:33and different conditions. So I think it's very important to support our female leaders in agriculture
00:40and farming as well. I've been fortunate to work with a number of amazing women in my time, particularly
00:48on boards that I've been serving on. I've also been very fortunate to stay in contact
00:55with a number of women who have been great mentors to me through the years and I see a really
01:03bright
01:03future for women in agriculture as it's going from strength to strength.
