IN THE SPOTLIGHT

Skye Orsmond
PURPOSE OF YOUR ROLE:
To keep banana growers and industry stakeholders informed, connected, and up-to-date with the latest industry news, research, opportunities, and developments that impact their businesses.
 
HOW HAS YOUR ROLE HAD IMPACT FOR GROWERS?
My role helps connect growers with timely, relevant information and practical opportunities – from research updates and biosecurity alerts to funding programs and industry initiatives.
YOUR BACKGROUND: 
I come from a fourth-generation farming family in Tully and I am the second generation on our family-run exotic fruit farm. With over 20 years’ experience in communications, I’ve worked across local and state government, retail marketing and events, and natural resource management. This combination of hands-on farming experience and strategic communications enables me to understand growers’ priorities and share information into practical, relevant insights.
