Mallee Sustainable Farming (MSF) is thrilled to announce the appointment of Angela Ewing as our new Specialist Director. With an impressive career spanning agriculture, emergency management, governance, and government affairs, Angela brings a wealth of experience and expertise to the MSF board.
Steve Burt, Chair said “Angela’s professional journey includes notable roles such as Executive Advisor for Operational Strategy and Integration at Ambulance Victoria and Director of Market Access & Reform at the Department of Economic Development, Jobs, Transport and Resources. Her extensive background also encompasses leadership positions within the Victorian government agriculture departments over many years in areas of biosecurity, ministerial advisory capacity, policy, program implementation and investment”.
He further said, “Angela’s diverse skillset and extensive knowledge makes her a valuable addition to the MSF Board. We are confident that her insights will play a significant role in steering our organisation towards continued success”.
Angela said, “The position as Specialist Director at MSF will provide her with an increased knowledge of dryland farming and she was drawn to the role given the importance MSF plays in supporting the farmers and the communities they are part of, to continue to be sustainable in the long term”.
She further stated “The farmers in the tristate region including Victoria, NSW and SA were some of the most resilient farmers in Australia given the environment with low rainfall recorded. I am looking forward to being part of the Board to support producers through research opportunities and with increased knowledge make informed decisions for the future of their farms with the assistance of improved processes and new varieties and technologies”.
