In Episode 15 of the FFN ‘Mentor of the Month’ podcast, FFN Director & Secretary Caitlin McConnel sits down with fifth-generation beef producer, Tess Camm. Tess grew up in Central & North Queensland on cattle stations and feedlots, and is now at the helm of Signature Beef as General Manager, which is a vertically integrated branded beef company currently constructing the bespoke processing abattoir in Central Queensland. Tess is also a 2020 Nuffield Scholar, which through the support of The Yulgilbar Foundation, she is investigating ways to increase the value of beef co-products, particularly their potential use in biodegradable packaging, opportunities in emerging markets for nutritional and pharmaceutical products, and alternatives to the rendering process. Tess has been a proud advocate and passionate contributor of the Australian beef industry from a young age, tailoring her business acumen and further research to ensure that the overarching benefits are for the industry, and the next generation of producers as a whole.
