Dairy Days

A women's learning is never done and we all know how difficult it is to find the time to get involved in learning opportunities.


The Dairy Women's Network - Dairy Days are designed specifically to give you the opportunity to network and learn from industry specialists and other dairy women.  These 1-day topical workshops bring you education and the latest research to help you build your dairying business.

Dairy Days focus on issues you have told us are most important to you. They are held throughout the country from (usually)10.00am -2.00pm, and are intense, practical sessions led by specialists. In association - Dairy NZ.
