Formed in 2001, the Upper North Farming Systems (UNFS) Group conducts research trials and provides extension and networking opportunities for farmers, agronomists, researchers and primary industry.
The UNFS Group covers a diverse geographical area in the Upper North Region of South Australia. The region is bordered to the north and east by the pastoral zones and extends south to the higher rainfall zones and encompasses the towns of Booleroo Centre, Crystal Brook, Hallet, Jamestown, Laura, Peterborough, Nelshaby, Orroroo, Quorn and Wilmington.
The group aims to undertake regular events for its members and the broader agricultural community in the region including workshops, crop walks and Hub events. The feature event on the calendar is the annual member’s expo which is held in August at Booleroo Centre.
COVID-19: GrainGrowers has put together a COVID-19 Resource guide full of practical tips and links designed to help farmers manage their way through this challenging time – please follow this link: https://www.graingrowers.com.au/policy/covid-19/
