AUSTRALIA 2024. FAO Director-General's Official Travel

01 November 2024, Victoria, Gippsland. FAO Director-General QU Dongyu visits Finger Family Dairy Farm run by Lauren and Simon Finger.
The farm has a focus on sustainability, productivity and profitability. They take a ‘low intervention’ approach to their farm management, with an ethos to ‘work with nature, not against it’, and practising low-stress stock handling in an effort to produce high quality milk. There have been recent investments in technology and infrastructure, and since 2020, the farm has moved away from synthetic fertilisers to a multispecies pasture base.
Lauren is the former Chair of GippsDairy, the regional service arm of Dairy Australia, the rural research and development corporation servicing the Australian dairy industry.
