It has been a record breaking tough season, but this has followed some good years. In this interactive session, three farmers (Gary van der Drift, Grant Archer and Andy Jackman) and farming systems scientist (Dr Matthew Harrison) discuss Dairy Businesses for Future Climates research findings for Tasmania. What seasons can we expect in the future? Should our farm systems intensify, simplify or adapt….and how? How can the dairy industry best manage increasing climate variability?
