When times get tough, there’s no shortage of technical advice – but what’s often missing are the real, practical insights from producers
who’ve lived it. This session is designed especially for sheep producers, offering candid reflections and advice from NSW sheep producers
who have faced dry times firsthand.
Tune in to hear stories, gain insights, ask questions, and take away practical strategies. This session will cover managing flock health and
nutrition during dry periods, making critical farm management decisions, adapting farm practices for resilience, and navigating the personal
and family challenges that come with tough seasons.
