These activities will be led by the Grower Support and Engagement Officer, Maurice Thompson. If you haven’t yet met Maurice, he’s got a wealth of experience and a strong, practical approach to helping growers.

Before joining ABGC over six months ago, he worked on a range of biosecurity responses including banana freckle, green myrtle virus, browsing ants and Asian honeybee. Coupled with 25 years in hospitality, he’s ready for a chat or to head out into the paddock.

As he said when he first took on the role, it’s about providing full support to growers. “That might mean taking a phone call, or it might mean visiting them on-farm. It’s about being available.”
