Nuffield Australia National Conference – Brisbane

Our Nuffield Australia National Conference is the highlight of the Nuffield calendar. Our flagship event offers a meeting point for Scholars, Investors and the broader agriculture industry who are all encouraged to attend.

Join the Nuffield community as they host the conference in Queensland, at The Royal International Convention Centre – EKKA Precinct – in Brisbane.

The theme is ‘Collaborate. Innovate. Cultivate’, showcasing Scholars’ ability to learn from farmers around the globe, identify cutting edge farming practices and technology, and sow the seeds of change that see individuals, businesses and wider industry flourish.
