During the month of May, we are looking at the future of food through the lens of the Northern Australia Food Futures Conference,  which takes place in Darwin 17-20 May.

AgriFutures Australia is a major sponsor with a particular focus showcasing industry partnerships in the north in Emerging Industries as diverse as native foods, pomegranate, jackfruit, hemp, dates and camel, just to name a few.  

Joining us for today's conversation is Matt Hall, the Director of Plant Industries with the Northern Territory Government. Matt is also a member of the AgriFutures Australia Emerging Industries Advisory Panel.

This conversation looks at some of the possibilities in horticulture in Northern Australia, with a focus on jackfruit, an emerging industry with an exciting future.
