About this event

Join SWQ Regional President Guy Newell and the AgForce SWQ Council for a Field Day focused on informing and educating producers on the very latest innovations and on-property practices designed to maximise pasture development, improve grazing capacity and deliver greater return on investment.

Our speakers will address:

• Tailoring management strategies to improve land condition, carrying capacity and profitability

• Utilising technology to monitor pasture productivity and land condition to support decision making.

• Optiweigh – a remote weighing system which enables producers to obtain accurate readings at regular intervals without the cost, time and live-weight loss associated with manual weighing

• AgCarE – An AgForce program that measures Natural Capital condition at the property level and assists landowners to tell their story

Guest Speakers

• Col Paton – EcoRich Grazing

• Phil Tickle - Cibo Labs

• Anthony Chick - Optiweigh

• Dr Greg Leach – AgForce

A light lunch will be served on arrival and guests are invited to enjoy a cold beer at the end of the day.

We hope you can join us!
