Plant Health Australia (PHA) is the national coordinator of the government–industry partnership for plant biosecurity. Our members comprise all major plant industry bodies that represent Australian growers and beekeepers, plus all state and territory governments and the Australian Government. PHA independently advocates on behalf of the national biosecurity system to benefit plant industries and the environment. Our goal is to minimise plant pest impacts on Australia, boosting industry productivity and profitability and enhancing market access.

Bio Gro's roots were established in 1975 by the late founder Hans Van Schaik. We are a leading innovator at first by capturing timber mill by-product from the Green Triangle region and have continued to progressively innovate across now a range of organic waste and plant growth sectors providing important close-the-loop solutions through organic resource recovery. We capture the full potential of the resource stream by professionally processing and converting the material into a variety of high quality and nutrient rich products, tailored for a wide range of horticultural, viticultural, and agricultural applications. The recent introduction of processing Food Organics Garden Organics (FOGO) has significant environmental benefits by further reducing the amount of organic material being delivered to landfill, to then refining and reapplying this material across a number of market sectors. This all results in a business model which provides circular economic outcomes through recovering, refining, and reapplying quality products from organics as we continue to broaden our organic waste recovery capability and end market diversification. Ever mindful of our environmental footprint, sustainability at Bio Gro plays an increasingly important role in our business toward carbon neutrality and also how we go about innovating for the future. What we save through landfill diversion, the emissions we emit as part of our processing and practices, and what we are putting back into plant regeneration are all vital toward improving our climate’s position. Bio Gro understands that making the small changes we need to make today helps achieve our vision toward a greener more sustainable future of tomorrow.

Launched in 2019 by Cormac Sheehan (Director of Purpose Communications & Co-Founder of The Cannabis Co), Green Planet was created to educate people about cannabis and advocate for a fair industry. Cormac departed The Cannabis Co in October 2019 to focus all his efforts on growing and promoting the current and future industry around the cannabis plant. He did so because of the cannabis plant’s potential towards creating a better future for this planet, a potential that involves almost infinite opportunities for positive change. This required a more inclusive, transparent and non-partisan platform than otherwise existed; Green Planet was launched to bring knowledge, insight and opportunity to those who wish to get involved in the industry, be that as consumer, creator or observer.
