Join FBA at Mountain View, Springsure for a practical producer workshop exploring an algae supplementation trial under central Queensland grazing conditions.

Hear from the producers involved, alongside researchers and industry experts, as they share what’s being tested, what they’re learning and the science behind the trial.

The workshop will explore how improved cattle nutrition could support liveweight gain, feed efficiency, productivity and profitability, while also considering the potential to reduce emissions intensity.
