Hosting this field day is Elgee Park, a large working farm where wine, cattle, quarter horses, nature and art thrive in a truly unique environment. Elgee Park has been working with Falcon UAV for several years and has been trialling a biologically-focused soil program. The day will include a farm walk to see how these methods are being applied in their vineyard.

You will hear from three local experts in biofertilisers and biological inputs:

• Daniel Hodges (Soil Water Plants): an introduction to biofertilisers and discussion of what they are, how they benefit your farm and how to make them
• Luke Weekley Falcon UAV): mapping and assessing agricultural landscapes for precise applications of biology using drones and the latest technology, and a presentation of biological tests taken for precision application of products recommended and selected for Elgee Park
• Peter Briscoe: assessing farms for biological inputs and the benefits of this approach, biological tests and products to consider and a demonstration of how biological inputs influence above and below ground biomass (clear pot trial).
