Techspo 2019 | Prospectus 3
The Concept Southern Dirt TECHSPO aims to be Western Australia’s premier technology
and innovation event for the Agricultural community and associated
industries. It will bring together technology and developers, farmers,
advisors, and expert researchers for three days of advanced agriculture
technology, information sharing and collaboration with in-field
demonstrations and workshops.
TECHSPO aims to take the Conference and Exhibition on Day 1 and extend it to
field with how to on-farm technology demonstrations, making it experiential
and hands for farmers and industry. This model was used at last year’s MLA
Red Meat conference in 2018.
Event Catalyst There are approximately 135,997 farm businesses in Australia as of 2015, 99
percent of which are family owned and operated. Each Australian farmer
produces enough food to feed 600 people, 150 at home and 450 overseas.
Australian farmers produce almost 93 percent of Australia’s daily domestic
food supply. The adoption of technologies, genetics and innovations that
increase efficiencies in production and advances in biosecurity are key to
protecting this industry. Diversification strategies that include other farm
outputs such as premium super foods are needed to create the industries of
the future. Land and water efficiencies and sustainable agriculture
techniques with origin traceability will also be crucial to future prosperity
(Source: National Farmers Federation and multiple papers from
researchers around the country).
There is no one significant agricultural technology hub in Western Australia
or arguably indeed in Australia. Through the development of this event,
Southern Dirt has the capacity to create an Agricultural and farming events
hub for Western Australia. This hub has the potential to build a brand as a
leading Agricultural Technology hub for Australasia. All comparable events
in Australia including Mingenew, Newdegate and Dowerin do not have a
working farm experiential demonstration component and are not focused on
advanced technology and innovation. This event is only about technical
advancement making it incredibly attractive to the farming community and
its service providers. The need is there, and the model has been a proven to
be successful overseas.
Techspo 2019 | Prospectus 4
TECHSPO in 2019 On the 7th August 2019, an agricultural technology Conference and
exhibition will be held with experts brought in from around the country and
overseas to share their knowledge and provide inspirational forums that
address technological advancements in agriculture. Integrated
throughout this time, exhibitors will have the opportunity to showcase their
good and services to attendees.
Following the conference, a networking sundowner will take place in the
same location. To add to the fun and excitement, ‘Lambassador’, Sam
Kekovich will be headlining the evening,
The 8th August will see a field day with a twist at the Katanning Research
station. Commencing with a ‘how to put technology into your own farm’
workshops, moving into field demonstrations and investigating the viability
of these technologies on YOUR property. The day will end with networking
drinks.
This will be a must-attend event for anyone interested in learning about
and/or developing new technology solutions for Agriculture. Many of these
solutions are focused on the challenges of sustainability, traceability and
increased crop and livestock outputs. We offer the opportunity for farmers
to spend the time connecting with the top researchers and developers who
are creating these farming innovations and to contribute their ideas and
opinions on what is being produced.
Why be Involved? From genetics, through to research techniques, sensor and other
equipment advancements this is an event with a difference. The event will
demonstrate areas that are critical for farming in this state: Livestock
technologies for sheep, cattle, and other animals, aquaculture; broadacre;
horticulture; data and genetics. Unlike Dowerin or Newdegate field days
which focus primarily on local farming, family fun events and large
equipment purchase venues – TECHSPO will showcase the future of
farming and the creation of prosperous, sustainable agricultural
communities which is of upmost priority for this region.
