The next GRDC update will be held at Pinnaroo on June 28, enabling growers and other grains industry stakeholders to contribute to shaping future RD&E for the important issues which affect the profitability of growers.
The GRDC’s staff, Southern Regional Panel and Regional Cropping Solutions Network will host the interactive forum.
Southern RCSN co-cordinator Jen Lillecrapp said it was another event for the GRDC staff, RCSN and panel members to listen to growers and discuss relevant RD&E investments, activities and opportunities.
“The local forum at Pinnaroo, one of six being held in SA and Victoria, will provide local growers and industry stakeholders with the opportunity to have their say on the important constraints and profit-growth opportunities, and discuss and shape future RD&E,” she said.
The focus topic of the Pinnaroo forum will be increasing the productivity of sandy soils, with CSIRO researcher Lynne MacDonald leading the discussion.
Growers and other industry personnel are encouraged to register their attendance for the forum which will be at the Pinnaroo Football and Netball Club from 9am to 12.30pm, followed by lunch.
