Our Agri-Tech Centre will give our students, farmers and agricultural businesses greater access to commercially-proven technology to help improve the profitability and sustainability of livestock production. Focusing on the tech-to-plate journey, the centre will showcase the production, welfare and financial benefits that technology can bring to farm performance and productivity.
