Resilient Farming Tas Webinar Series

Farmers and Resilient Farming Tas Program participants have shared a lot with us over recent months, including topics of interest to them.

In response, we have been hosting an ongoing Tuesday Lunch and Learn Webinar Series. Timed for 60 minutes, the first half of the webinar will focus on a knowledge exchange, with an opportunity for you to then have a Q&A with the experts. These events are FREE to attend and will guide you through resources and tools available through the RFT Program. 
All webinars have been recorded with access via the Google Classroom for participants.

12.30-1.30pm Tuesday, 18th February 2025 -  AgTech Adoption in Farming Systems

Facilitated by Dr. John McPhee and Dr. Fiona Kerslake

Not sure what next steps you should take in ag tech adoption on your farm? Join John (Agriservices) and Fiona (Ag Logic) in an engaging conversation about the guide they developed to help you think about the questions to ask when considering investment in ag tech. This is less about what particular piece of technology you should purchase but more about the broader questions of what problem are you trying to solve, where does ag tech fit into your business etc. This will be primarily a discussion session where you can bring your questions and concerns to the table. It’s all about developing an understanding of where you are at now, barriers and opportunities when using agricultural technology and planning for the future. 

You are welcome to provide any questions you have in advance when you register.
