Red Meat Updates 2016

Red Meat Updates is a full day conference event for anyone involved in the Tasmanian red meat industry - producers, processors, advisers, livestock agents, industry organisations, product suppliers and researchers.

Established in 2013, this year is the fourth annual Red Meat Updates event. Each year the event attracts 200-300 of Tasmania's red meat sector.

The objectives of Red Meat Updates are to:

• better connect individuals and organisations involved in the red meat industry and encourage networking;

• raise awareness of red meat research, development and extension programs and projects;

• highlight research outputs that have relevance to Tasmanian red meat producers;

• identify useful and relevant tools and resources that are available to industry;

• showcase what is possible (stretch targets) in terms of sustainable and profitable production and motivate producers to want to improve;

• highlight examples of what producers are doing to work towards achieving these stretch targets; and

• signpost activities, programs and projects producers can get involved in to enable them to build knowledge, skills and make meaningful on-farm practice change.
