Jasmine Nixon Young Farmer


Young Farming Champion
Jasmine Nixon
On the 16th August 2013 Jasmine Nixon from Art4Agriculture came to teach us about her farm and beef.
Jasmine is from Crookwell, NSW which is just over an hour away from Avoca. She lives on a farm called Merryvale and keeps Angus cattle.
First she showed us a power point presentation about her farm and beef. She showed us a couple slides and then it came to a clip. The clip was about Jasmine, her farm and her cattle.
Then she went through some slides about her cattle and what happens to them when she sells them. She sells her cattle to a feed lot. The feed lot fattens up the cows that are then sold to the abattoir. The abattoir kills them then separates them to go to different butchers. Then the butchers sell the meat to us for us to eat.
At the end Jasmine said because we were such a good audience she was going to show us a video clip. The clip was a parody of the song Gangnam Style called Farmer Style.
After that we had to do an interview with Jasmine. We filmed it on an iPad.
