FREE TICKETS UP FOR GRABS FOR INAUGURAL VOLAC MAIZE SYMPOSIA
A limited number of free tickets are up for grabs for Volac’s inaugural Maize Symposia, taking place at the start of July.
The events will see global experts from around the world take to the stage to share the latest research findings and practical tips for farmers under the theme: “Making the Most of Maize: King of the Forage Crops.”
The symposia will be held on Tuesday 7th July at Exeter Sandy Park, Devon, and Thursday 9th July at Harper Adams University College, Shropshire. A limited number of free tickets are available via Eventbrite by entering the code EXETER100 or HARPER100 at checkout.
Jackie Bradley, Global Product Manager Forage for Volac, says the events have been designed to cover all stages of maize production, providing growers with practical advice, underpinned by the latest research findings and innovative thinking.
“It’s the ideal event for maize growers looking to take their maize management to the next level. For example, Cody McCary from the States will be talking about how drones are being used in the USA to 3D model silage clamps, plan flan feed out, accurately measure forage stocks and review clamp management. He will also cover how this might be applicable in the UK,” she explains.
Iwan Vaughan, ruminant nutritionist at Dairy Diagnosis in Wales, will also draw on findings from his 2017 Nuffield Farming Scholarship on low protein feeding. He will highlight how maize can be used to meet milk processor requirements to reduce total dietary crude protein levels, whilst maximising feed conversion efficiency.
