Sienna has been working for AGT at Northam since 2023 in the role of field technical officer, having previously held a similar position at the company’s Wagga Wagga breeding centre in 2020/21.

The new role will see her work closely with existing variety support manager Floyd Sullivan, covering variety promotion and marketing, seed production, and technical support of AGT’s wheat, barley, lupin and canola varieties across all ag zones of WA.

No stranger to the agricultural landscape of WA, Sienna was born in Albany in the Great Southern and attended Muresk Institute as well as working in the agri-business sector.

Sienna says she is excited to be moving into this new role with AGT.

“I am passionate about the future of agriculture and committed to supporting growers by helping develop and deliver new field crop varieties that are more productive, higher in quality, and more cost-effective to grow,” Sienna says.

“I am looking forward to this new challenge and putting the learnings from being a technical officer into marketing our new and current varieties,” she adds.
