Birchip Cropping Group Inc. (BCG) is a not-for-profit agricultural research and extension organisation led by farmers from the Wimmera, Mallee and North Central regions of Victoria. Our mission is to improve the prosperity of farmers and agricultural communities through farmer-driven innovation, research and extension.
Recognised both nationally and internationally by the industry as a credible, independent and innovative organisation, BCG’s research and communication activities provide evidence, support and tools for improving farm management practices and profitability.
BCG has been integral in the adoption of new agronomic technologies and farming practices; and continues to help farmers make decisions, develop risk management strategies, increase profits and operate sustainable farming operations.
BCG members enjoy access to premium information, including technical bulletin, BCG Season Research Results and free entry to flagship events.
BCG supports Australia’s broadacre farmers by publicly advocating for their communities, businesses, practices, tools and resources. To do this, we provide position statements on issues relevant to our members.
BCG exists for its members. Research and extension activities are designed to provide members with information and resources that will help them improve the productivity, profitability and sustainability of their farm businesses.
