Woolgrowers can see first-hand how on-farm research can make their future more profitable at a special forum in the Riverina staged by Australian Wool Innovation Limited (AWI) later this month.
The forum will showcase the latest research, development and innovation (RDI) activities at the Falkiner Memorial Field Station, Conargo, NSW, on Thursday, 28 July 2005.
The program includes practical displays of many of the on-farm projects underway at the AWI-owned Falkiner Station, as well as updates on market development activities and the latest initiatives to increase demand for Australian Merino wool.
Topics to be covered include:
Blowfly research and mulesing Building demand for Merino wool Latest genetics technologies Optimal feeding of ewes Shearing technology research Market opportunities in China
Speakers include AWI Chairman Ian McLachlan who will discuss the priorities for AWI and the importance of innovation. Attendees will be able to talk with key AWI staff about many of the RDI projects.
The forum starts at 10am and finishes at 3.30pm. Seats are limited. Woolgrowers are urged to reserve their space by phoning AWI toll free on 1800 070 099.
