One of this year’s highlights is the Paddock to Plate Pavilion, where the culinary stage lights up with an appearance from celebrity chef Darren Robertson. His live cooking demonstration will bring farm-fresh ingredients to life celebrating local produce.
Also participating this year are meat industry experts, ag tech innovators, and the NSW Department of Primary Industries, which will be engaging primary producers via the Farms of the Future program.
Primex Director Bruce Wright said this 41st Primex is a return to grassroots values with a strong focus on shaping the future for rural producers across the region.
“One innovation we’re proud to introduce is Young Aggies North Coast, a new network supporting under-35s in agriculture to connect, collaborate and plan for the future,” he said.
In addition to robust discussions on everything from regenerative farming to animal productivity, this sustainable farming and primary industries expo will feature a wide array of working machinery
