Natural Asset Farming: meet the authors in Boorowa

Join Sustainable Farms for the Boorowa launch of Natural Asset Farming: Creating Productive and Biodiverse Farms.

Authored by four members of the Sustainable Farms team and published by CSIRO Publishing, Natural Asset Farming introduces an important new framework for the integration of biodiversity into agricultural landscapes.

It also provides practical guidance on enhancing natural assets on farms, bringing together the experience of farmers and the results of 20 years of detailed ecological studies undertaken by the ANU Sustainable Farms team on farms in Australia’s south-eastern wheat-sheep belt.

Well-known local farmer David Marsh will join us to launch the book, followed by discussion with the authors.

Join us for drinks and nibbles at the Boorowa Hotel at 5.30pm, Wednesday 13 April.

RSVP essential by Tuesday 12 April 2022 – see below for registration details.

We look forward to seeing you there.
