This week on the Head Shepherd podcast, Mark catches up with long-time friend, Andrew Kennedy.

Mark and Andrew worked together back in 2001 at the start of the Lifetime Ewe Management project, and have kept in touch ever since.

Andrew completed a PhD at the University of Western Australia and has an undergraduate degree in agriculture from the University of Melbourne.

Andrews career and experience with farm systems, pasture agronomy, animal nutrition and farm economics/management means there's plenty for Mark and Andrew to discuss. 

Alongside his partner Kirsty, Andrew started Thrive Agri Services. They provide independent production, business and research and development services to the Australian sheep and beef supply chains throughout Western Victoria- with the tag ling  "to enable your animals, farm systems and people to THRIVE."
