25: HoA "Why the bloody hell aren't we sharing this story?" with Hugh Dawson

You can find out more on our Instagram over the coming days. Today's guest is an incredible young bloke, he's been our eyes in the sky 800km from Darwin to give us a view from the cockpit of a mustering chopper. To be honest – since I spoke with Hugh earlier this year I knew he had something different about him. I don't think there's many people I've come across who have their shit together quite as well as Hugh, let alone at the age of 22. His involvement in the business, his involvement in industry and his desire to find out more so he can make his own judgements as well as promote agriculture more broadly is down right remarkable. We chat about the journey from school the need for a degree and his one gap year that's coming on five - A little bit about the family wine making business - Some footage he saw of the cattle live export industry in 2011 and being drawn to finding out more - The passion for livestock, animal welfare and understanding more about the Australian standards we export is absolutely contagious - The curiosity to continually learn and grow his understanding of practices and being involved in community groups so he can give back The Northern beef industry, but more importantly Australian agriculture is lucky to have the heart and mind of Hugh Dawson working in it.
