Farmers thirsty for information
By Chris Oldfield SOME of our district’s leading farmers rolled into the Naracoorte Town Hall recently, eager to hear the latest about cyber security, farm finance, carbon farming and livestock health. Additionally, motivational speakers included Naracoorte raised Jess Stenson, a Commonwealth Games gold medallist, and her brother Jack Trengrove, a former AFL footballer who found success within the finance industry. With an agenda set to inform and inspire modern farmers, the Primary Producer Information Day was organised by Pinkerton Palm Hamlyn and Steen (PPHS).
