Event Information
Event description
The Gippsland Red Meat Conference (previously known as East Gippsland Beef Conference) is back with a fresh and inspiring program.

This event will be an immersive, challenging and inspiring experience for all members of the farm business, and we guarantee that sheep and beef producers will find real value in attending.
Topics to be covered at this year’s conference include:

- Financial Literacy: If the CapEx fits, do you wear it? Or will you EBIT and ROAM?
- Analysing the market forces that are shaping beef and sheepmeat prices
- What does it mean to be carbon-neutral, how can we achieve that, and what is in it for us?
- Did you hear about the $500,000 carbon credit trade to Microsoft? Hear from the bloke who sold those credits
- Soils ain’t just soils, Sol. What is happening underground and how can we profit from that?
Plus: Masterclasses in

- Precision Lambing
- Crossbreeding & Heterosis
As well as
