In October 2022, the Australian Farm Institute (AFI) held its annual Roundtable event which focused on cultivating environmental, social, and governance (ESG) capability in Australian agriculture.
Sustainability activities are constantly being created and implemented in our sector, however, the next step in the ESG landscape that many of these initiatives have struggled with is setting goals and targets.
Join the AFI at the iconic Adelaide Oval on Tuesday, 4 July 2023 to contribute to improving the sustainability of Australian agriculture and communicating this to the wider community. Hear from experts, participate in debates, join roundtable workshops and unpack these issues over networking meals.
