About Me

My photo
Ray Vella
Together with my wife, we manage the family operated cattle property at Bald Hills, Marlborough, Queensland, Australia. We run approximately 3000 brahman cross cattle on 18000 acres. Nuffield Australia has awarded me a 2012 Nuffield Scholarship kindly sponsored by MLA. I would like to tour properties being run productively and efficiently and to implement their concepts back into Australian farming enterprises, with enough flexibility to suit every individual grazing capacity. This blog is a photo journal of my Nuffield adventures.

The Nuffield Scholarship Program

Established in 1947, in the UK, the Nuffield program resulted from a bequest from William Morris (later to become Lord Nuffield) of the Morris car company. Nuffield Australia has awarded 21 scholarships to Australian Primary Producers for 2012. The scholarship program provides leading primary producers with the opportunity to travel overseas to increase their general knowledge of global agricultural issues and to gain skills to benefit their industry and business.
