BestWool/BestLamb and BetterBeef Conferences and Dinner 2026
Turning today's challenges into tomorrow's opportunities
Agriculture Victoria's BestWool/BestLamb (BWBL) and BetterBeef (BB) conferences are returning in 2026. After taking the conference 'on the road' around Victoria in 2025, we're back to the full scale conference format in Ballarat, and it's bigger than ever.
The conferences will feature keynote addresses and concurrent sessions, allowing participants to tailor their day to their interests and needs. Speakers will inform, challenge, and excite with the most up-to-date industry research and practical strategies that can be implemented on farm.
This event is proudly delivered by Agriculture Victoria as part of the Victorian Government's statewide Drought Support Package in partnership with Australian Wool Innovation (AWI) Extension VIC, supported by Meat & Livestock Australia (MLA).
