Extensive facilities

You'll have access to some of Australia's best agricultural teaching and research facilities, including extensive and diverse farming facilities on our 1,600-hectare university farm, modern laboratories and glasshouse. You’ll get hands-on to develop practical skills with our extensive computer facilities, precision agriculture technologies, the most sophisticated underground root growth laboratory (rhyzolysimeter) in the Southern Hemisphere and university sheep and cattle herds and animal handling facilities. These skills will be underpinned by working closely with other agricultural organisations on campus as well as the Wagga Wagga Agricultural Institute.
