📺 Catch The Rain Webinar Series

We are halfway through a series of webinars running as part of the Catch the Rain project funded by Beef + Lamb New Zealand.

Last week, Sam Lang and Jules Matthews talked Limiting Factors. Prior to that a host of farmers discussed regenerative grazing systems and techniques in New Zealand. Webinars will be available for replay here.

Next up is Deferred Grazing (17 April) and Diverse Pastures (8 May).

These are open to all farmers and free to attend. What are you trying to solve or address in your grazing management?
