PIEFA bringing The Australian Farmer to classrooms
Elizabeth Gracie
One Mandate Group, the publishers of The Australian Farmer, has donated 100 copies of the second edition of The Australian Farmer
to the Primary Industries Education Foundation Australia (PIEFA).
PIEFA is the industry leader in food and fibre education across Australia and encourages primary industry educations in schools in collaboration with industry, government, and educators.
Functioning as a knowledge tool, The Australian Farmer
is a 1000+ page compendium and growing resource for farmers in the fields of science, technology, innovation, and profitability.
These copies of The Australian Farmer
will be distributed to teachers across the country by PIEFA in an effort to further Australian food and fibre education for school students in both urban and rural areas.
Dr Cameron Archer from PIEFA has commended One Mandate Group for this sizable donation and dedication to furthering PIEFA’s mission to engage Australian schools and communities in this area.
