Precision Agriculture Training Workshops

This project support growers to access precision agriculture training through a series of hands-on workshops run through 2021.

A GRDC funded national project led by SPAA, GGA will collaborate with grower groups to host workshops bringing together local dealers, PA experts, and software providers to demonstrate PA using the tools growers have.  Activities will vary for each location based upon feedback but could include getting data in and out of monitors, creating prescriptions, setting up management trees and paddock boundaries.

This is a second round of workshops in the series open to new and returning participants, no experience or prior attendance necessary.
