Whether you are new to grazing or an experienced grazier looking to fine tune your managment, this workshop delves into practical tools and strategies to improve soil health while optimising the potential of your farm business, even if you are also working full-time.

Topics explored include:

• Understanding pasture growth and the connection between grazing & soil health

• Clarifying your vision & goals, profitable decision making tools, planning for success

• Setting up your property in a cost effective way, and to be productive at any size

• Easily calculating your stocking rates, carrying capacity, grazing and rest periods

• Managing grazing during wet and dry seasons, working with less desirable plants

• Learning simple ways to measure your soil health and indicators of improvement

Refreshments will be available for those who would like to stay afterwards to continue connecting and sharing experiences.

Katie and Andrew Zerner from Knowledge to Practice are regenerative graziers who are passionate about the health of their land, soils and business, and how that relates to human health, connection and landscape. They both have a wealth of knowledge from a lifetime of working with organisations and families across rural, regional and remote Australia in the areas of grazing and farming operations. Together they run courses designed to empower people to take action - providing practical demonstrations, support, accountability, and developing people’s confidence to pursue their goals.
