Who we are ‘A network of livestock production and farming groups that delivers and communicates innovative projects for sustainable grazing systems while promoting NRM outcomes’

Governance structure BIGG Angaston Ag Bureau Koonunga Ag Bureau North Rhine Sheep Group Mt Pleasant Beef Group Barossa Mid-North Dairy Discussion Group Technical Facilitators/Comms Officer Advisory Committee Project 1 Project 2 Project 3 Project 4 Funding Partners

BIGG is ‘producer driven’ Started with ‘Winter Pasture NRM Project’ (2012, NR AMLR funded) Ongoing ‘harvesting’ of producers project ideas

How does BIGG remain relevant?

1. We are connected Projects driven from the ground up Link with other local grower groups (e.g. BGWA) Stakeholders Industry vs. producer driven priorities

1a. Industry driven Eg. MLA Producer Research Site Project But has proved positive New relationships Tap into expertise

2. We are serious about communications Projects are ‘marketed’ Communication Plan Communications Officer Awards

3. We are accountable Strategic & Operational Plan 2016-18 (2014 AgEx local grower group award) Being accountable and pushing ourselves to improve

Listen to your producers Remaining relevant = providing value Take home messages Listen to your producers Remaining relevant = providing value
