Presenters at BCG’s Trials Review Day to be held on Friday 23 February 2024, will provide important results from the 2023 research year for growers to apply to their farming businesses in 2024.
The event, to be held at the Birchip Community Leisure Centre, is an opportunity for BCG members to reflect on the key learnings from BCG’s research and engage with relevant local researchers to make informed decisions in 2024.
BCG Senior Extension Manager Kelly Angel said keynote speakers are already being locked in: “The 2024 program will have a strong BCG staff representation with more staff members to present than ever before.”
“Performance of wheat, barley, canola, and pulses varieties will be discussed, particularly regarding the best bets for Mallee, Wimmera and North Central regions,” Ms Angel explained. “Insect activity in harvest weed seed control systems is another hot topic.”
As a members’-only event, attendees will also have first access to the 2023 BCG Season Research Results compendium which will be released on the day. This publication highlights the research conducted by BCG at the organisation’s 31 trial sites established in 2023.
“BCG Trials Review Day also offers a wonderful opportunity for members to connect, meet new people or catch up with other farmers, researchers, agronomists and industry representatives from across the region,” Ms Angel added.
