Live sheep demonstrations of the AWI funded University of Adelaide project.
This type of biological harvesting does not need nets – a weak point is created and harvesting can occur from that point in the staple.
The Demonstration Day will also provide an opportunity to see commercially available options for mobile, upright and adaptable wool harvesting alternatives.
- Talk to leading machinery and shed manufacturers on design and construction
- See what’s the horizon with research into safer and more productive and efficient wool harvesting systems
- Get the latest in AWI Shearing Shed Safety, shed design and shearer and wool handler training initiatives
