The Next Gen Ag Forum: Thinking outside the box with Jacob Wolki

Recorded live at the Next‑Gen Ag Forum 2025, held at the Quayside Terminal in Townsville.

Jacob Wolki is a farmer, business owner, and innovator who’s built a reputation for challenging the status quo. In this engaging and thought-provoking session, Jacob shared how he has created diverse, vertically integrated enterprises — from livestock and market gardening to direct-to-consumer retail — all by reimagining what’s possible in agriculture.

Jacob’s story is a reminder that the next generation of producers can design businesses that suit their lifestyle, values, and market — not just follow the conventional path.
