The National Farmers’ Federation, NFF, has welcomed two familiar faces to its board. 

Former director Mark Horan was elected, replacing Tony Yorke who reached the maximum six-year term, and current director Georgie Somerset was re-elected at the NFF’s annual general meeting on October 21.

Mr Horan and Ms Somerset join the eight-member board  following a vote from representatives from the NFF’s member organisations.  

Mr Horan is a cattle producer in New South Wales and Ms Somerset is a cattle producer from Queensland.

NFF president David Jochinke welcomed the pair. 

“Georgie and Mark both bring extensive experience to the NFF board, through their previous roles at the organisation, as well as their knowledge of the ag industry,” he said.  

“I look forward to working with them both.” 

NFF board members are: president David Jochinke; vice-president John Hassell; directors Lisa Minogue, Georgie Somerset, Mark Horan, Hamish McIntyre and David Connolly; and independent director Nat Sommerville.
