Cracking through the 'grass ceiling' in agriculture
After initially cutting their teeth leasing a farm, Josie Zilm and her husband bought 600 acres just outside of Sale in Gippsland on the La Trobe River, where they run Angus breeders and trade cattle. Their farm — Amella Pastoral — has now survived the driest three years since records began in the area.
In this episode, Josie shares what she and her husband have done to mitigate the risks associated with seasonal conditions, how they use social media as a tool for marketing the farm, and the importance of promoting women in agriculture.
