AWI Extension NSW Webinar - Unpacking wool performance and measuring your flock's productivity

In the midst of industry speculation, and seasonal conditions, objective insights into wool enterprise performance are essential. In this webinar from AWI Extension NSW, Jess Paton, Agrista, takes a clear, evidence-based look at how wool enterprises are really performing, using recent Agrista benchmarking data. The session unpacks what the numbers are telling us, what is driving enterprise performance, and what this means for individual businesses. Jess also shares insights into the strengths and challenges of managing a wool enterprise, as well as take a look at how flock structure is changing. The aim of this webinar is to provide producers with clear, actionable steps to better understand their own enterprise performance and feel empowered to calculate key performance metrics within their own business.
