Rolling into town like a caravan of knowledge, Mallee Sustainable Farming (MSF) hosted a roadshow across the plains of the SA, Vic, and NSW Mallee region, bringing a festival of projects to the towns of Loxton/Browns Well to Waikerie/Lowbank, Coomandook to Bowhill, and Wentworth to the Millewa. Farmers and researchers alike flocked to community halls and country pubs for a laid-back exploration of the latest R and D results from 2023 trial sites.
