2024 is certainly off to a fantastic start for VicNoTill!
As most of you know, in February we took a group of 19 farmers to the South Island of NZ for an 8 day study tour. We hosted 2 x stubble management field days in Illabo & Kyabram, along with a Biofert workshop (in partnership with Soils for Life) - held in Waitchie, and more recently attended NutriSoils WormFest where our Vice president Tom Briggs presented!
Our latest edition of our magazine "From the Ground Up" has just been posted out to all of our current members (if you need to renew...click here!) its full of information about everything we have been upto, including an in depth soil pit analysis from our "Soils for All Seasons Roadshow" last year, a NZ recap, farmer stories and paddock roundups from our board.
In other exciting news, our annual conference will be held in Wagga Wagga, NSW on 3rd, 4th and 5th September 2024.

The REGIONAL BRAIN RESET TOUR with Allan Parker!
Allan was a crowd favourite our 2023 TRANSITION conference. We highly recommend getting to one of his regional workshops - not to be missed.
A very close friend of ours, Tim Parton - has sadly been involved in a terrible farming accident in the UK and has sustained life changing injuries. The team here at VicNoTill would like to encourage anyone able to support him and his family during this incredibly challenging time. We are sending all our love and support to you Tim!
