Attracting, retaining, and growing a skilled workforce remains a top priority for the Australian Lot Feeders' Association (ALFA). To support this, ALFA has established the ALFA Future Feeders Network (FFN) – an exciting initiative designed to engage and empower young professionals in the lot feeding industry.

​

The Australian lot feeding industry is a vital part of the livestock production chain, bridging the gap between primary producers and the supply chain. Through the ALFA FFN, we aim to build a dynamic, inclusive network where the next generation can explore career paths, develop skills, and actively contribute to the future of the sector.

​

Our vision is to nurture and support tomorrow’s leaders in creating a sustainable, ethical, and profitable industry that is valued by the community for producing high-quality grain-fed beef to the highest standards of animal welfare and environmental stewardship.

​

The network is driven by the ALFA FFN Committee, under the guidance of ALFA’s Industry Capacity Committee, and will take the lead in delivering strategic, industry-focused activities aimed at fostering connections and collaboration.
