The R&D Adoption Award was developed by the National Vegetable Extension Network (VegNET) in Victoria as part of the 2019 AUSVEG VIC Awards for Excellence.
The VegNET program is delivering a spray application workshop for vegetable growers, spray operators and advisors thanks to a strategic levy investment by Hort Innovation.
This free, levy-funded workshop will deliver practical, hands-on training for pest and disease identification in the vegetable industry thanks to the VegPRO project.
This event will discuss compost options, costs, how to ensure quality and outline what's involved to meet food safety requirements. View the flyer here.
Attendees at the Future Farming Field Day saw RIPPA in action, participated in a mock leafminer surveillance exercise and learnt more about NDVI spatial mapping.
The Werribee Future Farming Field Day will include an in-field demonstration of the RIPPA, insights into agtech and mock vegetable leafminer surveillance.
Free workshops and extension activities will provide training in irrigation, chemical handling, pest and disease identification, biosecurity planning and much more.
