Overview

Supporting the 2023 Future Drought Fund Science to Practice Forum the South-West WA Drought Resilience Adoption and Innovation Hub (SW WA Hub) will host a face-to-face workshop for producers in Manjimup on 8 June.

This free-of-charge event will showcase outcomes from projects supported by the Australian Government's Future Drought Fund and how they can be put into practice on WA farms.

The overarching themes for the day are precision agtech and water management, looking at projects that have taken place over the last 12 months. With speakers from universities, government and the private sector based right here in WA, you are sure to find a local perspective with current research.

Topics covered will include improving dam water retention and performance; combining CSIRO technology and weather data to improve on-farm decisions; analysing current monitoring technology to find the right fit for your farm; digital tools to map and improve yield, and much more.

This event is hosted by the SW WA Hub's Manjimup and Bunbury Node Leads – the Southern Forests Food Council and South West Catchments Council.

The event begins at 1pm, finishing at 5pm with a sundowner to follow. Registration and attendance is free.

Join us for a beef and gravy roll to network with researchers and other producers.
