Cultivating the Future: Montana Baddeley
Guest: Montana Baddeley
Host: Roberto Lujan Rocha
In this episode of Cultivating the Future, Roberto Lujan Rocha speaks with Montana Baddeley, a PhD student at The University of Western Australia.
Originally from Geraldton, Montana’s passion for livestock genetics began on her family’s horse stud and evolved into a multidisciplinary research career.
Her PhD, supported by the WA Agricultural Research Collaboration (WAARC), explores the interplay between genetics, environment and management to identify the ideal ‘Super Cow’ for Australia’s rangelands - an animal that can thrive and remain productive even in drought conditions.
Montana shares how she blends scientific rigour with creative thinking to develop innovative solutions for complex agricultural challenges.
