Farm Systems Evaluator Workshop - Denmark

The Farm System Evaluator online tool assesses a dairy farms readiness to adopt a new farm system involving feeding and housing infrastructure. Designed for farm owners and managers that are considering a system change, the tool involves answering a set of questions about a farm business across key management areas.

Farmers using the tool will be equipped with:

• Guidance on the farm system options best suited to their goals and needs.
• Visualising and preparing for the changes through a strategic and action plan.
• Understanding the benefits and limitations of operating with different feeding and housing infrastructure.

Scott McDonald (AgVic) and Alicia Richters (Dairy Australia) will be delivering this two-day workshop to farmers on the South Coast who are considering any level of infrastructure investment, whether it be a free-stall dairy or a feedpad to get you started - by considering your farm and business needs for the future now, you can make sure you've planned all aspects of your investment and how it fits into your farming structure.
