One of the guest speakers, a scientist, had attended the Collingwood-Port Adelaide game at the MCG on Sunday, which was attended by an infected person.
Andy McAllister from Agriculture Victoria told the conference via a broadcast from his computer, that he could not attend the Moama conference after getting advice.
Mr McAllister gave the conference an overview of the changing landscape for dairying in northern Victoria, describing how water use and the number of dairy farm operations had decreased in recent years.
The zoom broadcast included information and mapping slides and at the conclusion Mr McAllister was able to take questions on the screen.
