What people said about AusMac2018

"While the conference sessions are informative, the biggest benefit for me is that AusMac is a unique opportunity to network with everyone in the industry, from growers through to processors, agronomists and engineers. It's a great way of keeping up with new developments and technology, and the relationships I have established at the conference mean that it is much easier to ring up afterwards and have a chat or find out about an issue." 

Adrian Crush, Bundaberg macadamia grower

"With its varied program, there is something for everyone at AusMac. Information-rich formal presentations, workshop sessions, with their practical recommendations relevant to day-to-day management, and social sessions, which are a great opportunity to network and develop relationships with other growers and people in the whole value chain. You only need to pick up one thing (and more than likely it will be more than one) and apply that in your business and it will definitely provide a great return on  your investment in the registration fee." 

Aimee Thomas, Gympie macadamia grower
