Service Provider Forums

What are they?

Information sessions and forums aimed directly at service providers to help them help farmers make the best choices possible.

The latest forums:

  • Pasture consumption calculator: Based on the 2007 Australian feeding standards, this is a new standard for calculating annual pasture removal from the milking area of dairy farms.
  • Feedout Checkout: A decision support tool designed to assist in making investment decisions on feed pads and feeding machinery

Come along and have the opportunity to discuss the new tools with the people who developed them.

Please bring your laptop if you have one. It would also be great if you could download the tools to your laptop before the day.

The tools are available on the DPI website, Dairying in Victoria under Tools.

What is the DEC’s Role?
