Commonwealth Bank has joined New South Wales farmers Jane and Jodie Costello to shine a “beacon” on the strength and resilience of Australian agriculture.
To celebrate National Ag Day 2022, with the theme of “innovation in agriculture”, Commonwealth Bank partnered with the Costello family to use cutting-edge GPS technology to etch a 60,000 square metre CommBank Beacon on the Costellos’ farm in Monteagle, NSW.
“This project was about celebrating the ingenuity across the agricultural industry,” said Paul Fowler, CommBank’s Executive General Manager, Regional and Agribusiness Banking.
“Jodie and Jane’s property is all about celebrating the history of the land and rural Australia. With the canola in full bloom with fields of CBA yellow, this was the perfect partnership to highlight the importance of innovation, showcasing the technology that is supporting a thriving industry.
“Our longstanding commitment to regional Australia is something we’re incredibly proud of and we’re continuing to work towards ensuring the ongoing success of regional communities and Australian agriculture,” said Mr Fowler.
