Callum Wesley
Callum Wesley (I: @callum_wesley, T: @callum_wesley) is an innovative farmer, agricultural inventor and rural role model. Callum is currently running his own contracting business along with co-managing his 8,000 hectares with his father and uncle where he has plans to continue to grow and innovate. He always knew Agriculture was his passion but after several years of drought, questioned if going back to the farm would be viable for him.
Callum invented what is called the Wesley Wheel that aims to harvest moisture from inter-row furrows. Callum has an open gate policy and is always willing to trial new things that might help their farming business further including his current trial of long colioptile wheat which is proving very successful.
Callum was also a member of the Western Australian AgConnect Committee, as well as being the 2014 Rural Ambassador of WA and an Innovation Generation Young Leader.
