EDGEnetwork

Summary

EDGEnetwork is a series of structured learning workshops, which have been developed through the joint efforts of producers, researchers, scientists and technologists to reflect the needs of livestock producers. All workshops have been tested by producers Australia-wide to guarantee their quality and relevance.

MLA's EDGEnetwork offers practical learning opportunities to help producers gain knowledge and develop skills necessary to improve their livestock enterprises. This educational and informative format encourages producers to expand their current expertise and learn new skills, be motivated by other producers and access the latest information. Producers gain the best of group and individual learning by working in small groups that enable them to receive personalised service.

The EDGEnetwork workshops have been developed by industry specialists and tested by producers Australia-wide to guarantee their quality and relevance. EDGEnetwork is a joint initiative of Meat & Livestock Australia and the Victorian Department of Primary Industries. Additional information can be found on our website at:h
