GET AHEAD OF THE GAME !
Join us for an Exclusive Farmers’ Science Workshop with Clint Rissman from Land & Water Science
Following our AGM on Tuesday 19th August (7:30pm), ESAI is proud to bring you a not-to-be-missed workshop with the brilliant Dr Clint Rissmann (Land and Water Science). Clint has a gift for turning complex science into practical, paddock-ready knowledge that makes sense to farmers.
With re-consenting and changing freshwater rules just around the corner, this workshop is your opportunity to get the inside track on the real data that affects your farm – not just models, but actual data from our own catchment.
📅 Date: Wednesday, 20th August 2025
⏰ Time: 10 AM – 12 PM
📍 Venue: Lakeside Soldiers Memorial Hall, 164 Harts Road
🥪 Free lunch provided along with great science and a catch up with mates
What’s on the agenda?
- How your land use and geology shape groundwater N and P flows – and what that means for your farm. This includes correlations of groundwater N concentration and bore location and depth.
- Where the contamination risks are – and smart, targeted options to reduce them.
- What isotope sampling tells us about water age and flow paths – real results, no guesswork/models.
- How ESAI members can harness this knowledge for better outcomes.
✔ Put this date in your diary now.
✔ Stay for a cuppa and lunch.
✔ Leave informed and future-ready.
