David Hardwick is an Australian agroecologist who has had a wide ranging career in agronomy, soils, agribusiness, biofertiliser R&D and manufacturing, organics, training, and consulting positions.

Through his company Soil Land Food (www.soilandfood.com.au) he runs training for farmers all over Australia.

He is coming to New Zealand in August and will run his popular one day workshop ‘On-farm bugs and brews: biofertilisers, stimulants and inoculants’ for the Growers Leading Change Biological AGG. There is space for other growers to join this hands-on 1 day workshop.

You will learn the theory behind fermentation based bioferments and biofertilisers, and practice making a number of simple recipes as well as learning about using biologicals in your system.

For additional information, please contact Donna Lill (donna.lill@far.org.nz).
