Episode 44. Tania Luckin

More Than Milk

Tania Luckin and husband Stephen moved from New Zealand to Australia 26 years ago, and whilst Stephen was from a farming background, Tania had NO dairy experience. But as you will hear, she has thoroughly enjoyed learning and working alongside Stephen and certainly has had a wonderful career in dairy.

In today’s chat she shares the experience of moving to Australia and learning a whole new industry, how they have managed their staff with an emphasis on getting the 3R’s right, her involvement within industry on representative boards for the last 22 years, with the last 6 years spent on the Dairy Australia Board. This chat was recorded late last year and since then, Tania’s term has finished, with some other wonderful new farmer representatives stepping up.

I think you will really love the great pieces of advice and insights she gives into being involved with industry and using your voice for the better of the industry - I certainly have taken so much away from this chat.

In the spirit of reconciliation we would like to acknowlegde the Traditional Custodians of country throughout Australia and their connections to land, sea and community. We pay our respect to their Elders past and present and extend that respect to all Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples.
