Regional Councillors:
Lachlan Tully
As a young adult deeply rooted in the agriculture industry, I am committed to advocating for the future of farming and representing the voices of my region. Growing up on a sheep, cattle, and goat property 80km west of Quilpie, I developed a passion for agriculture that has only strengthened over time.
I believe that enabling farmers to have their concerns heard is essential for creating sensible, forward-looking policies. My vision focuses on bridging the gap between remote properties and policy-makers, ensuring that regional issues are effectively communicated.
As technology continues to transform agriculture, I see the value in supporting producers with emerging advancements, like EID integration, particularly for those less familiar with tech solutions.
My energy, perspective, and passion for innovation position me to effectively advocate for the southern inland region. I am excited to contribute actively to AgForce and help drive a sustainable, progressive future for our industry.
