World Soil Day

TMI Chairman Gary Nairn and CEO Carolyn Hall had the pleasure of attending the World Soil Day Event breakfast at Old Parliament House in early December, by invitation from the National Soils Advocate the Hon Penny Wensley AC.

Carolyn spoke with the Hon David Littleproud who asked how we are going at Mulloon, while Gary spoke with the Hon Angus Taylor. The Hon Michael McCormack who co-chairs the Parliamentary Friends of Soil group with the Hon Linda Burney, also spoke very eloquently at the event.

It was a great opportunity particularly for connecting with a number of key people who are either keen to collaborate, or are keen to visit Mulloon, with some very positive connections made for Mulloon in the research space.
