Meat & Livestock Australia (MLA) is calling for industry input into a new five-year Strategic Plan that will guide the organisation and the services that it delivers from 2025 to 2030.
A significant part of MLA’s work involves looking ahead to ensure the red meat and livestock industry is in a strong position to deal with strategic challenges and opportunities. “MLA is responsive to industry requirements and the evolving operating environment of our industry,” MLA Managing Director, Michael Crowley, said.
“A core element of the Strategic Plan development is extensive feedback and consultation across the industry to hear directly from stakeholders – including producers, peak industry bodies and the Australian Government.
“Over the past five months, MLA has held more than 12 engagement sessions across the country. MLA is working with members to ensure we gather feedback on opportunities, risks, research, development, adoption and marketing priorities.”
MLA is now calling for industry stakeholders to also have their say via an online feedback form.
This will direct MLA’s focus and the services which are fundamental to the success of the industry. MLA’s consultation process continues in early 2025, with the new Strategic Plan to launch on 1 July 2025.
“We welcome feedback from MLA members, levy payers, industry groups and stakeholders to a survey seeking feedback and guidance on key priorities, risks and areas of core focus for the MLA Strategic Plan 2030,” Mr Crowley said.
