This week, veteran agricultural broadcaster Kerry Lonergan joins Beef Central, hosting our brand new industry podcast series called The Weekly Grill. The new podcast series is brought to readers with the support of Elanco Animal Health.

Each week, Kerry will sit down with an industry identity to chew the fat on topical matters across the meat and livestock industry.

His first guest is Queensland red meat processor, lotfeeder and beef producer Terry Nolan, discussing the current challenging conditions faced by meat processors, Australian beef's global competitiveness, herd rebuilding, the future direction of MSA, the labour challenge, potential for automation in agriculture and other topics.
