Broadcare Agronomy Webinar Series
Six Department of Primary Industries and Regional Development research officers presented at the biennial Australian Agronomy Conference in Ballarat, Victoria last year.
The Australian Agronomy Conference supports research and a sense of community by connecting agronomy professionals across Australia.
The theme of the conference was ‘Doing more with less’ because maintaining international competitiveness of Australian agriculture requires continuous improvements in productivity.
The conference attracts speakers from around Australia and the World.
The department hosted a free webinar series towards the end of last year, providing the Western Australian grains industry with access to the key information presented at the conference by our staff.
The recordings of these webinars are now available online.
