Showcasing Innovation And Sustainability In Central West Agriculture

August 21, 2025 by Roxane Manley

Through the Adapt 2 project, Central West Local Land Services is gearing up for a sea­son of hands-on learning and collaboration with a series of spring events designed to engage local farmers and showcase prac­tical strategies for sustainable agriculture.

On 3 September, the Parkes Grazing Forum will bring together producers, re­searchers and industry experts to explore innovative grazing strategies and share in­sights on improving pasture management and livestock productivity.

In October, a series of field days will pro­vide hands-on learning at dual-purpose cropping trial sites, showcasing how inte­grated cropping systems can boost both profitability and sustainability. Walks of the National Variety Trials will showcase new varieties, discussing traits and potential fits for farming systems across the Central West.

“Through our Adapt 2 project, we’re build­ing strong peer networks and providing practical skills that help producers adopt low-emission practices, improve efficiency, and participate in carbon and natural capi­tal conservation,” said Pip Doolan, Senior Land Services Officer.

Farmers can register for the Parkes Grazing Forum via nsw.gov.au/lls-events.

To learn more about the spring field days or the Adapt 2 project, contact Central West ag team on 1300 795 299.
