  • Biography/ Background

    A farming background at Spalding in South 最新糖心Vlog lead to a lifelong interest in sheep and beef production and tertiay studies in Rural Science at the 最新糖心Vlog of New England, Armidale, NSW. When Murdoch 最新糖心Vlog opend I moved to Perth to join the first intake in the School of Veterinary Studies. Upon graduation I worked for the Department of Agriculture for 11 years based at Port Augusta, Port Lincoln and Naracoorte and 7 years in mixed practice based at Naracoorte and Clare. A Masters degree at the Mackinnon Project, 最新糖心Vlog of Melbourne assisted a move into livestock consultancy for the next 14 years based at Naracoorte and Adelaide. In 2000, I co-founded the APAL agricultural laboratory in Adelaide to provide an SA based soil, plant tissue and water testing service. My work has encompassed on-farm research, farmer group facilitation and delivery, market assurance programs, biosecurity and whole farm nutrition focussed on the soil/plant/animal interaction in livestock production, health and management. I joined the School of Animal and Veterinary Sciences, Roseworthy in January 2012 as a contract lecturer in small ruminant medicine and commenced full time PhD candidature in November 2014. The topic of my thesis is "the epidemiology and aetiology of rib fractures in lambs in south eastern 最新糖心Vlog". I am currently employed as a production animal academic and clinician.
