Yvonne is the Advisory Board of Agriculture (ABA) Representative on the ChemCert Australia (SA) Incorporated Board. Originally from Moonta on the Yorke Peninsula, Yvonne worked in an Accountancy and Legal Office in taxation, legal, estate and accounting departments prior to marrying Trevor and moving to Kulpara (near Paskeville). Yvonne later continued her studies completing a Certificate III in Agriculture and a Diploma in Rural Business Management. In addition to this Yvonne continued to undergo professional development courses and other courses relevant to her farming business.
Trevor and Yvonne lived on their cropping property at Kulpara for 30 years before moving to a grazing property at Lucindale in the South East, leaving their son Nick and daughter-in-law Cynthia to manage the cropping property and develop a prime lamb enterprise to compliment their cropping enterprise.
Since moving to the South East, Yvonne has been actively involved in Lochaber Agric. Bureau, Women in Agriculture and is a member of the Advisory Board of Agriculture representing the Mid and Lower South East Regions. This role has been beneficial in the understanding of a new region of the State and assisting in the understanding of their new property.
