BCG invite you to join their Women's Agronomy Group

The BCG Women’s Agronomy Group is a fantastic BCG initiative that kicked off at the beginning of 2006, after a number of women indicated they would love some ongoing agronomic education, hence the Women’s Agronomy group was formed.

The group meets on a bi-monthly basis at BCG to discuss topical and relevant seasonal agronomic issues. The meetings are not only educational but have a social element as well.

All women are encouraged to come along to the meetings. If you are interested please contact the BCG by phone on 03 5492 2787 or email. The fee is $10 per meeting, this includes morning tea, lunch and materials.

The Women's agronomy group is generously supported by Incitec Pivot.
