The National Farmers' Federation (NFF) is pleased to announce the appointment of Tracy Sullivan to its board.
Dr Sullivan fills the casual vacancy created when Hamish McIntyre was elected President.
Located in Western Australia's Kimberley region, Dr Sullivan is an experienced cattle veterinarian with more than two decades working across the supply chain. Her career includes roles as a grassroots beef producer, veterinary consultant and positions within industry and government.
Dr Sullivan is also a director with NFF member, the Australian Veterinary Association and was recently appointed to the newly formed National Food Council. She is also a graduate from the NFF's Diversity in Agriculture Leadership Program.
NFF President Hamish McIntyre welcomed Dr Sullivan's appointment.
"Tracy has a deep knowledge of agricultural supply chains and policy, understands first-hand the realities of being a producer, and recognises the importance of industry and government working together.
"We are thrilled to welcome her to the NFF Board and look forward to her contribution as we progress the NFF's 2030 Roadmap."
