Shaun Hendy
Director Valuations - Agribusiness
My qualifications include a Post Grad Dip in Ag Econ and a Bachelor of Business in Property Valuation. Aside from the memberships of valuation professions i am also a member of the Ag Institute of Australia. I am a specialist agribusiness valuer with expertise in pastoral and intensive livestock as well as irrigation and water rights across eastern Australia. I provide my clients with a unique and insightful perspective to valuation and advisory as it relates to their assets. I have had the opportunity to develop a career where I am involved in the valuation of many intensive livestock enterprises including feedlots and piggeries across Australia. Intensive livestock management has always been an area that has been of great interest to me. I have observed many operations and it never ceases to amaze me how improvements and efficiencies are continually gained with improvement and the refinement of "systems" to improve repeat ability of outcomes. I believe that precision livestock farming has moved from the feedlot and livestock shed to the paddock. The principles of management of resources and livestock are the same, requiring development of systems to control productivity through nutrition, pasture and land resource management that are adaptive and also relevant to the environment in which ag enterprises operate. I consider that my perspective as both a valuer and an agricultural economist is one that is always trying to assess the benefit and gains of improvements, relative to investment.. More recently (last 5 to 10 years) i have observed the investment in new infrastructure such as modern feedlots, new feed milling systems, modern piggeries with climate control and herd management systems, waste management systems using bio-gas to generate electricity to supply the site's needs, and new and improved grazing and herd management systems that have seen improvements in the productivity of weight gain and herd fertility across large areas of grazing regions from NSW Central Tablelands to the Northern Territory. I have been encouraged by the gains that have been achieved across all these areas and more importantly the return on investment from additional income, improved resilience of enterprises to weather difficult time and the added value from these initiatives contribute to portfolios, all of which make our industries stronger and more competitive in a tough global ag environment.

FAQ
  • add remove What is Currnt?
    Currnt is a “Knowledge Networking” platform where companies and professionals come to stay relevant on the latest advances in their industries in the face of the increasing pace of change. Companies sponsor panels to learn about where markets are headed or how to leverage new capabilities. Professionals join to demonstrate and develop their passions with equal caliber peers in expert-only facilitated online engagements. On Currnt, we take our passions seriously and ourselves lightly. See our Community Guidelines, to learn more of the rules of the road, here are some highlights

    • Be yourself. The authenticity of Currnt begins with the passion of people.
    • Be respectful. This applies to every person, at all times.
    • Be inclusive. Tolerate, welcome, and consider diverse people and perspectives.
    • Build empathy and understanding. Engage in debates that are in good faith.
    • Foster meaningful and genuine connections. This is what Currnt is all about.
    • Do not plagiarize or fail to cite other’s ideas.
    • Don’t game the points by trying to coordinate intentional recognition.
  • add remove How do Panels work?
    The panel is like a facilitated forum of hand selected experts on a topic sponsored by a company that wants to learn fast. Panels are organized in chapters called Themes that focus on one subtopic at a time. In some panels Themes are only 24 hours in duration, in others they are a week long, and in some they are two weeks long. When one Theme closes, a new one begins. You come in when you feel like it, but try to come in twice per Theme. You earn points from your peers and the facilitator when they react to your ideas. Likewise, others earn points when you interact on their posts. The more we discuss and debate, the better the insights, the more points earned by all.

  • add remove Why should I apply? Do I get paid?
    Professionals join Currnt because they want to remain relevant on subjects they’re passionate about and subjects that are shaping the future of their industry. They also:

    • Engage and connect with equal caliber peers in their industry
    • Learn and enhance their knowledge
    • Get recognized and rewarded for providing their inputs and thought-leadership
    • When specified above in the project description, you can earn honorarium payments and/or recognition points redeemable for cash. Learn more here.
  • add remove Are there specific times I need to participate?
    There are no set times for calls or meetings. Participation is 100% online on the Currnt platform and engagement between the all expert panelists is asynchronous in written form. Just come in twice per Theme, at your convenience.

  • add remove How do KnowledgeStreams and DesignSprints work?
    Streams are ongoing online engagements for exploration or working iteratively with a panel, and Sprints are on-demand engagement to get to actionable insights quickly. Both are facilitated and are always-on for participants to engage at-convenience. The conversations are segmented into Themes which are subtopics which are like chapters in a book. In a 4 Day Sprint, Themes are 24 hours, whereas a Theme in a Stream is every two week. Throughout the discussion, the facilitator highlights and categorizes the “key takeaways” to be voted and distilled into a summary report. It’s also common that other pieces of content (whitepapers, blogs, podcasts) are also prepared from the distilled insights.

  • add remove I’ve applied. Now what?
    Your application will be internally reviewed in the following 24-48hrs and screened for any conflict of interest, and general fit. Next your application will be shortlisted for the sponsor to accept, bookmark or reject. You will receive a notification each step of the way, but expect this may take a couple of days, or even weeks if the panel is new. Nevertheless, in addition to the notifications, you can always go back to the Apply page to view the status of your application.

  • add remove I’ve been selected. What am I expected to do when selected?
    Once you receive your Welcome Email, please RSVP by clicking the link in the notification. You can also gain access to the panel through your ‘My Currnt’ at the top of the page. Finally, once you have RSVP’d by logging into the panel, there is often a Welcome Tab where you can introduce yourself to the other panelists. If it’s a new panel, the first Theme will launch in a few days, if it’s an ongoing panel just jump right in by reacting to the question or to what the other panelists had to say.

  • add remove If I have other questions or issues, what should I do?
    Please contact support to answer any other questions or troubleshoot any issues via email or chat.
