Graziher x AgriFutures: Life on the Land with Kate Lamason

AgriFutures On Air

We celebrate the winners of the AgriFutures Rural Women's Award in this special series of Graziher's Life on the Land podcast.

Did you know as a nation, we consume a staggering 336-million tins of tuna a year – roughly the same weight as the harbour bridge? And that 99 per cent of the 50,000 tonnes of tinned tuna Aussies eat annually is imported? With less than a third of that certified as sustainably fished.

In this episode you'll meet Kate Lamason, the Queensland winner of the AgriFutures Australia Rural Women's Award.

It's these statistics that blew her mind and reeled her in to start her business, Little Tuna – to get Aussie tuna on Aussie shelves.
The AgriFutures Rural Women's Award shines a spotlight on some of the most inspirational, courageous, innovative and hardworking women in the business, and celebrates all that rural Australia has to offer. This award recognises women having a positive impact in rural industries, businesses and communities and inspires the next generation of female leaders across all aspects of regional, rural and remote Australia.
