Risk Management - livestock & cropping systems

Thursday 4th June 2009, at 9:30am

The Mackinnon Project invites you to attend a workshop on risk management in livestock and cropping systems.

Changing commodity prices, changing seasonal conditions, new technology and rising input costs are constantly causing producers to re-evaluate their enterprise mix and management strategies.  There is always a huge range in profitability between the top and bottom producers for any enterprise – so changing enterprise does not guarantee greater profitability.

Every month, the Mackinnon Project publishes a newsletter filled with up to date information relevant to sheep and beef farming in southern Australia.

Researchers from the Mackinnon Project investigate new strategies to tackle flystrike in sheep.
