COVID-19
GrainGrowers COVID-19 resource guide
GrainGrowers has released a COVID-19 information guide to assist producers. The guide includes advice about on-farm access to visitors, suggestions for minimising risk across the workforce and planning ahead in relation to chemicals and fertiliser requirements.
Information surrounding border and operational restrictions in agriculture is constantly changing. GrainGrowers’ COVID-19 guide for growers seeks to simplify and consolidate requirements, recommendations of best practice and grower’s rights in this complex environment.
