Safe Farming Tasmania and our friends at the TFGA, Primary Employers, Nutrien Ag, and Elders are facilitating a series of practical information sessions around the state to raise awareness of safety around livestock handling, and the many other issues currently affecting beef growers and their workers.

The sessions have been developed in consultation with our key stakeholders including beef growers, rural sector leaders, and industry experts.
