Join us at Earlston for a practical field day focused on building more resilient and profitable mixed farming systems.

The day will bring together local trial results, livestock management tools, farming systems research and practical grain storage advice to help mixed farmers make confident decisions across both cropping and livestock enterprises.

Chris Warrick from Primary Business will present the grain storage session, Protecting What You’ve Grown, covering practical strategies to maintain grain quality and reduce storage losses.

Topics covered on the day include:

• Vetch in mixed farming systems and what the trial data is showing
• Using body condition and liveweight to guide stock containment decisions
• OptiWeigh paddock demonstration
• Feed budgeting and livestock performance considerations
• Grain storage strategies to protect grain quality
