15.01.2022 Jersey Australia together with International Dairy Week and Global Impact Sale has started to distribute more than $100,000 raised to help farmers impacted by t...his summers fires. The distribution of funds from the IDW Bushfire Appeal is providing significant direct cash support to affected dairy farmers in the Cobargo and north east Victoria regions. With the generous support of the herd improvement industry, dairy farmers, dairy suppliers and those who purchased items from the silent auction, cattle sales and made donations from across Australia and around the world, about $113,000 was raised to provide direct financial support to dairy farmers From this amount $50,000 has already been provided to Renee and Harley Salway. Renees husband and Harleys father Patrick was tragically lost in the fires at Cobargo, alongside his father Robert. The balance of the funds is being distributed directly to 12 dairy farmers; six in the Cobargo region and six in north east Victoria Jersey Australia General Manager Glen Barrett said Jersey Australia was proud to get behind and support the appeal. The bushfire was a significant tragedy across the dairy farming community. The tragic death of Robert Salway, a long-time member of Jersey Australia with the well-known and highly regarded Wilgo Stud, and his son Patrick was devastating and felt across the Association, he said. We cannot thank all donors, buyers and supporters of the appeal enough. It certainly makes you swell with pride to see the dairy community come together to provide such amazing support when a lot of the industry has been challenged by long-term drought, water shortage and below par milk price. Director of IDW and Dairy Livestock Services Manager, Scott Lord said it was a pleasure to have the dairy community support the bushfire appeal conducted during International Dairy Week. The funds raised via the auctions as well as the many cash donations from Australia and overseas show that as an industry we care about our own, Mr Lord said. We are proud to be associated with such outstanding results and most importantly funds are getting to those in need in a timely fashion. On behalf of International Dairy Week, I sincerely thank all involved in this magnificent appeal. Declan Patten, Sales Manager for Global Impact Sales said When we heard about the devastation that happened during this bushfire season, we knew we had to help. It was fortunate that this year we were hosting our very first auction at IDW and we knew we had a platform to help others in our dairy community. We are overwhelmed with the support received and couldnt be prouder of the dairy community coming together during this difficult time." On behalf of all us, a very big thank you to all involved in this appeal during IDW2020.

09.01.2022 Notice to Members re AGM Dear Members Jersey Australia, in consultation with the Sunshine Coast Jersey Cattle Breeders Club, advise that the 2020 Jersey Austra...lia Annual General Meeting and Conference, scheduled to be held in Noosa on June 2nd 5th 2020, has been postponed due to the current Coronavirus pandemic. While not an easy decision to make this far out from the event, we are in an unprecedented and rapidly changing situation with no ironclad guarantee that further travel and congregational event restrictions will be enforced. The Board and organisers considered it appropriate to make this decision to prioritise members health and prevent unnecessary cost outlay that may not be recoverable. Jersey Australia encourages all members to take appropriate steps as prescribed by the World Health Organisation and Federal and State Government Health Departments to maintain good health and hygiene for yourself, your family and your community during this time. Jersey Australia will continue to plan an AGM to be held later this year in accordance with our constitutional requirements, which may include a meeting utilising video or teleconferencing. We thank the Sunshine Coast Jersey Cattle Breeders Club and Jersey Qld for their efforts to date in putting together an exciting conference for members. Rest assured we aim to take our AGM and Conference to QLD when possible. Should you have any questions or concerns please contact myself or Glen Barrett. Kind regards, Chris MacKenzie President #AustralianJerseys
