Graeme Sait Workshop

Upper Mooki Landcare Inc was fortunate to be offered 4 hours of Graeme Sait’s (Nutritech) time on 8th October 2025.  This intensive short workshop was attended by 28 farmers from Delungra, Gunnedah, Tamworth and the local area who gave extremely positive feedback on the event. Graeme is focussed on  improving profitability for farmers and sees food production as the most important of all professions.  He advocates that farmers must be nurtured, protected and supported in every way and that farming needs to be more profitable, more sustainable and more fun . He spoke about education, strategies and inputs to help achieve these goals.

Graeme’s secondary goal is to improve soil health, plant health, human health and, more recently, his mission has been extended to include planetary health (in relation to global warming). His message: “The thin veil of topsoil that grows our food is fast diminishing, and there is an urgent need for soil restoration initiatives”.  His team is “driven to improve the quality of the food that sustains us all, to reduce the chemical contamination of that food and, most importantly, to restore soil health and associated carbon sequestration across the globe”.

We are hoping to see Graeme back in the region in early 2026.
