ABOUT TREVOR SCHOORL

Trevor Schoorl was a highly-respected figure in the Australian dairy, feedlot and contracting industries. Graduating from the University of Queensland – Gatton in 1993, Trevor spent more than a decade working in the genetics industry in Australia and managing large dairy operations in the USA and the Dominican Republic. In 2004, he returned to Australia as Technical Services Manager with Quality Silage Systems (now Lallemand Animal Nutrition). He quickly rose to become one of the country’s leading silage production and nutrition consultants, providing expert technical support to livestock producers, silage contractors and Lallemand staff throughout Australia and Asia-Pacific.

Trevor had a thirst for knowledge and was always trying to find ways to deliver even better results for his clients. He credited much of his success to actively seeking out the best operators and working closely with them. His honesty, accountability, humility and hard-working nature earned him the enduring respect of his many clients, colleagues and friends. Trevor was killed in a tragic accident in December 2018.
