Taking Stock - Tactics for Tight Times

The Taking Stock program, delivered through DairySA and funded by Dairy Australia, offers free face-to-face support to help dairy families to identify any problems in their business; where they are now; and what their next, most important, decisions should be.

Interested farming businesses need to register through the DairySA office and they will link you with an adviser. DairySA Extension and Project Coordinators also have information on the program. 

Taking Stock runs until the end of June 2013. There are limited places available, so please register quickly.
