In the latest episode of the Wealth & Wisdom Podcast, we're digging into the turbulent world of the beef market with Matt Dalgleish, a seasoned agricultural market analyst who knows his way around livestock, grain, and wool data. Coming off a brutal year for beef producers in 2023 - with skyrocketing interest rates, soaring inflation, and plunging beef prices - the industry is on edge, and everyone wants to know what's next.
Matt breaks down what caused the perfect storm that hit beef producers hard. Was it a classic market crash, or just a blip in the larger economic cycle? He also gives us his thoughts on whether the worst of the volatility is behind us or if we should brace for more market turbulence.
With inflation and interest rates looming over every aspect of the economy, Matt pulls out his crystal ball to share what he sees on the horizon. Is the worst over, or is the beef industry in for another wild ride? If you're involved in agriculture or just curious about the state of the market, you won't want to miss this conversation.
Tune in to get Matt's take on these pressing questions and more, as we unpack what went wrong, where we're at now, and what's in store for beef producers.

Ben Law is a coach to some of Australia's most successful farming families. He was raised on the land — three generations of farming in his blood — and has spent almost 30 years and more than 40,000 hours alongside farming families, first as their financial adviser and now as their coach. Along the way he learned the truth nobody talks about: what makes or breaks a family legacy isn't the money — it's whether the family can communicate, get aligned, and prepare the next generation before succession arrives.
That's what this podcast is about. Each fortnight Ben sits down with farming families, trusted advisers and industry experts to unpack how to build a family that thrives across generations — strong in business, strong in relationships, and set up to hand over the farm without losing each other.
