Out and about at the expo

Shelley Walker, of South Gippsland Dairy, was looking to recruit additional suppliers as business is booming in the biocolostrum market.

Farmers flocked to the exhibitors of machinery and equipment at the South Gippsland Dairy Expo last month, looking for big ticket items like tractors, quad bikes, side-by-sides and automated milking systems, as well as hayfeeders and supplements.
