Amy: My husband and I recently welcomed our first child.
On my side of the extended family, our baby son (âSamuelâ) is the fifth grandchild, but on my husbandâs side, he is the first.

But, Cattlemen’s Beef Board Chair Jared Brackett says he loves it when the conversation turns to “sustainability” in the beef industry …
BRACKETT … “Because I think it allows us to continue to tell our story, which we don’t always do a good job of it. If you look at the number of multi-generational farms and ranches that, to me, just demonstrates how sustainable our operations really are.”

The Government has tried to point the finger back at Australia over delays in setting up a two-way transtasman bubble as it faces increasing criticism over the issue.
