DAF’s Legume BMP in the Brigalow Belt project aims to improve the productivity, profitability and sustainability of beef enterprises through reliable and successful use of pasture legumes. In the last 2 years, the project team has run 19 workshops attended by over 300 graziers. Don’t miss your chance to hear from highly experienced sown pasture agronomists, Gavin Peck, Brian Johnson & Louise Newman
