We are thrilled to announce that the Fruit Growers Victoria Conference “Improving On-Farm Efficiency through Innovation”, held on 22 August 2024 was a resounding success! With over 230 participants attending the conference, it exceeded our expectations in terms of engagement, knowledge-sharing, and networking.
Throughout the conference, we explored key topics such as Planning a Technology Ready Orchard, Using Strategic Sprays to Reduce Wages, Disease Control Strategies and Post Harvest Techniques, facilitated insightful discussions, and fostered meaningful connections among industry leaders.
The conference venue allowed us to extend our indoor and outdoor trade display areas as well as provide an area for machinery displays and demonstations.
We hope our delegates found the sessions inspiring and the networking opportunities valuable. Presentations from our speakers are available below for download as well as some photographs from the conference.
FGV would like to extend our sincere thanks to everyone who attended and contributed to the success of the Fruit Growers Victoria Conference.
