Hands-on project fostering the next generation of agricultural industry leaders
School students around NSW have been carefully feeding and collecting data on teams of prime lambs in a hands-on project designed to foster and mentor the next generation of farmers.
“Throughout the program students will learn modern breeding and performance concepts, understand maternal traits, meat production and wool quality, and explore sustainable, easy-care flock management.
This competition is more than just livestock – it is about teamwork, leadership, confidence and community connection, and showcasing the strength of agricultural education across NSW.
