Hear from Extension Team Lead, Libby Swayn on shelterbelt design and planning. Also hear from Extension Advisor, Scott Jardine on species selection and establishment.

This field day is hosted by the WestVic Dairy - Young Dairy Network and is open to anyone interested in establishing effective shelterbelts to support farm productivity and sustainability.
