Agriculture Victoria’s meat and wool program manager Jennifer Alexander said the roadshow will bring leading experts to producers with a focus on managing difficult seasonal conditions.
“We wanted to make it easier for producers to attend without extensive travel and spending a whole day off-farm, ensuring more people can connect, learn, and plan for the seasons ahead,” she said.
“This year’s theme, ‘Weathering Today, Building Tomorrow’, centres on supporting resilience in farming operations for this season and beyond, with a focus on recovery, adaptation, and long-term sustainability.
“The past year has presented significant challenges for livestock producers across Victoria, with dry conditions placing pressure on pastures, water resources, livestock health, and day-to-day decision making.
“Despite these challenges, we see many examples of resilience and determination in our farming communities.”
Sessions on pasture recovery, decision-making under pressure, animal health, and strategies for building resilience in business will be covered across the roadshow, with an emphasis on tools and approaches that are both realistic and actionable.
Guest speakers at the Mansfield event include: Cam Nicholson, Nicon Rural Services; Dr Jason Trompf, JT Agrisource; and Dr Anna Manning, Delatite Veterinary Services.
The roadshow comes to Mansfield on Wednesday, June 4, at the Mansfield Golf Club.
