Event Description
NutriSoil is excited to bring its Biological Farming RoundTable event to Tasmania, with key presenters agroecologists David Hardwick and Robin Tait. Our host farmers are Kate and Dean Marshman, dairy farmers who are using NutriSoil liquid and have recently trialled our worm castings. They have also recently successfully trialled multispecies crops and will expand their plantings during upcoming planting. The Marshmans use a Tow & Fert and have also been dissolving urea and adding trace elements as required.
- David Hardwick, agroecologist from Soil Land Food,Ā has over 20 years of experience in rural landscapes and farming systems and will share his passion for soil health and regenerative farming. His engaging and easy-to-understand presentations empower farmers to make confident agronomic and farm planning decisions.
- Robin Tait, independent agroecologist and Nuffield Scholar, has an extensive list of industry experience, across a number of fields. Her personal journey has led her to find her passion for soil health and farming with natureās principles. Robin has found her place in agriculture, working with farmers who have discovered the world of living soil and are making the transition to farming for the life of their soil.
