ACEMS Affiliate Member Miles McBain has utilised predictive modelling to predict the weight gain and meat quality of Australian cattle for one of Australia's largest livestock companies - The Australian Agricultural Company (AACo).  Further to this, ACEMS PhD students Brigitte Colin and Ben Fitzpatrick explored the use of satellite imagery to predict pastoral biomass, a collaborative project with the Cooperative Research Centre for Spatial Information.
