NSW dairy farmers have faced many extreme weather and climatic challenges in recent years from severe and prolonged drought to bushfires and then widespread flooding.
There is no doubt we will continue to see these events and others occur in the future. We need to get better at preparing for, responding to and managing our recovery in these situations.
With this in mind, last year a large collaborative research, development and extension program worth $16 million was launched. This 5-year program aims to fast track the NSW dairy industry to a position so that farm businesses have tools and options they can use to help them survive and prosper under the inevitability of changing conditions - be they economic, social or climatic.
This project is called DairyUP and is led by one of my guests today, Professor Yani Garcia who is Professor of Dairy Science at The University of Sydney and Director of the Dairy Research Foundation. We will be discussing some of the outcomes to date on a few of the projects and the implications they have for farmers. Joining us in conversation is Juan Gargiulo one of my DPI dairy colleagues who plays a leading role in several DairyUP projects.
