In the Light Region, Australian Grain Technologies (AGT), steered by CEO Hayden Cookel, stands as a great example of agricultural and community synergy. AGT’s work, pivotal in advancing agricultural research and development, echoes the Light Region’s reputation as a fertile ground for innovation.
“Staying in the Roseworthy township area…works really well for us. It’s a livable environment and there’s so many options in terms of employment,” Cookel highlights. “As a team we run field trials all over the state, so for us, we’re central to South Australian farming land, and it’s that really nice mix between farming and metropolitan Adelaide.” he says.
Cookel’s appreciation for the area—”It’s not that hard to go and get a meal in the Barossa or go and visit a winery in the Clare Valley”—underscores the quality of life enjoyed by those who call the Light Region home. This harmonious balance of work, community, and lifestyle is reflective of the broader values and opportunities present in the region.
