The Sustainable Agricultural Facilitator (known simply as a ‘SAF’) works with farmers, landholders, community groups, and agriculture industries across Southern Queensland to support the uptake of climate-smart, sustainable agriculture practices. This includes best practice natural resource management, providing clear information about environmental markets, and supporting practices that reduce emissions and build climate resilience on farms.

Our SAFs function as a contact point for all stakeholders looking to increase uptake of sustainable agriculture and climate smart practices.

As a final-year Bachelor of Agribusiness student with a strong interest in grazing management, livestock, and regenerative agriculture, Mackenzie brings both academic knowledge and hands-on experience to her work. 

Growing up on a family-owned cattle operation in CQ, Mackenzie has developed a passion for sustainable practices that enhance the health of both the land and the animals, ensuring long-term productivity and environmental stewardship. In her spare time, she enjoys working with cattle and horses, and spending time with friends.
