#47 Australia’s Food Security Play: Land-Based Aquaculture | CEO Dan Richards
This episode of Intelligence Optimised takes you to the floodplains of the Adelaide River in the Northern Territory, home to one of Australia’s most significant aquaculture operations - Humpty Doo Barramundi. Dan Richards - the farm’s director sits down with host Todd Crowley, to uncover how a family-run enterprise has grown into a key contributor to national food security.
From the site of the failed 1950s Humpty Doo Rice Project to today’s thriving barramundi operation, we explore the lessons learned from early challenges and the practical strategies that made success possible in a tropical climate. The conversation spans production processes, market positioning, sustainability practices, and the farm’s role in building local employment and skills.
Listeners will hear frank discussion on the intersection of agriculture, regional capability, and Indo-Pacific trade. We look at how a premium Australian-grown fish competes in domestic and export markets, and why sustainable production methods are central to both environmental stewardship and long-term economic viability.
For agrifood industry planners and policy advisers, the episode offers clear, actionable insights into scaling operations, securing supply chains, and aligning production with strategic national interests. These lessons carry weight not just for aquaculture but for any sector seeking to lift resilience in remote and regional settings.
