Cowra Shire straddles the Lachlan River and is reliant on the valley's strong agricultural base. Well-known for prime lamb and vealer production, where the soil types, usually reliable rainfall, and abundant irrigation water have brought a range of primary industries to the area. Viticulture, fresh vegetables, dairying, prime Lucerne hay together with poultry egg production, broadacre grain and oilseeds give the Shire an enviable economic base. Cowra and the Shire villages enjoy a strong tourism presence because of the natural beauty of the river valley, the war time history, the gardens, the vineyards and sports ovals. This dynamic Conference will be hosted by Cowra Shire Council and the Natural Resource Management Advisory Committee. It will highlight how the region has and will continue to build an inventive future based on agricultural, environmental and conservation advancements. Which to some extent, has and will come about in response to a changing climate and associated climate adaption research. The Conference will incorporate a variety of outstanding speakers, workshops and tours showcasing the regions latest innovations while sampling the amazing local produce. For more information, call 6340 2040. Stay tuned for program and ticketing details.
