Mengels host another Pacific Seeds Field Day
The multi-generational Mengel property to the west of Nobby is quickly becoming a regular fixture on the calendar of farmers as it hosts Pacific Seeds Field Days events.
There was good interest in the latest Pacific Seeds Field Day on Melvin and Josh Mengel’s property this month.
The event attracted 82 people who heard seven guest speakers discussing a wide range of topics.
The Field Day was staged to give farmers a first hand look at the new Pacific Seeds Winter Oats and Canola lines.
The Oats and Hyola technical presentation covered grain sorghum, an update on wheat varieties, forage for beef or dairy cattle, canola oil and grazing varieties and corn for grain or silage.
Counsellor Jen Taylor from the Rural Financing Counselling Service was also on site to engage in one-on-one talks with producers.
