Join us at the state-of-the-art South West Dairy Development Centre for a facility tour and an action-packed day centred around on-farm innovation.
In the morning there will be a talk introducing the newly released ADOPT Fund that is dedicated to putting farmers at the centre of innovation, followed by a talk on the Dairy Carbon Network and a Q&A.
Following a networking lunch, you will tour the facilities at the SWDDC before re-grouping for an Open Innovation workshop focused on animal health and welfare covering:
- Dairy technology – how can technology help farms become more sustainable and resilient?
- Slurry handling – slurry is a valuable resource but how can we measure and mitigate the disadvantages?
- Animal health and welfare – Dairy cow and youngstock health is essential; how can innovation help?
