A nine-person panel, including Blackall-Tambo mayor Andrew Martin, Yaraka publican Gerry Gimblett, Rabobank state manager Brad James, CW HHS chairwoman Jane Williams, QRAA program manager John Rossberg, Blackall businesswoman Holly Hawkes, Elders manager Daven Vohland, Longreach RDAQ member Clare Walker, and stud sheep breeder Rick Keogh - had plenty of ideas to share at the Blackall forum.
Topics ranged from job availability to succession planning via diversifying economic bases, when Queensland Country Life held its seventh and final Grow Queensland forum in Blackall on Thursday, bringing together around 70 people.
