Who Controls Your Meat? One Farmer’s Bold Solution

Описание: 🔍 What if your steak came with a side of corporate control?

In this eye-opening episode of Farm Learning with Tim Thompson, we meet Tammi Jonas, a leading voice in food sovereignty and one of Australia's pioneers in on-farm meat processing. As multinational corporations like JBS and Cargill tighten their grip on the Australian meat industry, farmers like Tammi are fighting back — by building micro abattoirs that put power back in the hands of local farmers and communities.

We tour Tammy’s regenerative farm in Daylesford, VIC and uncover:

Why local abattoirs are vanishing

How regulations crush small-scale meat producers

What a fully off-grid, animal-welfare-focused micro abattoir looks like

How this farm supports 7 full-time livelihoods on just 70 acres

If you care about food security, ethical meat, and community-based agriculture, this is the video you need to see.
