One of Tasmania’s biggest agricultural success stories is celebrating six decades of teaching agricultural science.

The Tasmanian Institute of Agriculture (TIA) is a partnership between the State Government and the University of Tasmania.

The University’s decades of work in agricultural related teaching, research, development and extension was recognised as part of the annual TIA field day at the Forthside Vegetable Research Facility in the state’s North West.

Members of the vegetable industry, researchers and industry supporters gathered for an opportunity to learn and connect, recognising the contribution of those in agricultural science in Tasmania over the past six decades.
