EVENT CANCELLED
Unfortunately we have had to take the difficult decision to cancel this year’s event. Please see below details of what was planned. All ticket holders will be contacted for a full refund.
Join us to celebrate the Ag industry and our hardworking farmers who produce the food and fibre we need to thrive.
It's a great opportunity to unite our community, hear from inspiring speakers, and show your support for the agricultural sector.
There will be discussions on Resilience Farming from key experts in their fields, but the aim of the night is to have a laugh and connect with mates.
$72.00 per person includes dinner, drinks and special guest speakers, with live music by Whip the Mix Duo – a country, rock n roll band sure to get you up dancing.

Phil has spent 45 years working in agriculture across 3 states, mainly in the livestock industries.

Each year RDASI celebrates the amazing contributions that people in the Agricultural industry make towards the Southern Inland region by highlighting innovative People, their Practices, and the Programs they utilise to grow some of the highest quality produce right here in the Southern Inland region of NSW. Unfortunately last year’s Innovation in Ag event wasn’t able to go ahead at the last minute, so we’re looking forward to this year’s event with much anticipation.
