Oli Le Lievre

"I've always been obsessed with agriculture. From a young age I longed for the holidays at my uncle's farm in South west Victoria, Australia. I suppose not growing up on a farm, it lit a fire in my belly that I had the opportunity to get out and really explore the industry. I've been fortunate to get exposure to quite a few areas of the industry; on farms in Australia and Canada, exporting Asparagus to Asia, in start-ups and now corporate agribusiness. The one thing that has been consistent is the people involved in agriculture have the most amazing stories, but they don't have a central platform that builds trust, authenticity and is in a language that is relatable across the supply chain. The need to create stronger connections and understanding of Agriculture has always been a passion of mine. Humans of Agriculture exists to bring authentic, unique and emotive stories that draw engagement and strengthen understanding. Every single one of us is a stakeholder in agriculture and we rely on a strong, resilient and sustainable food system to have the futures we desire."
