Farm walk steals a march

摘要

AUSTRALIA'S Longest Farmwalk, a series of 26 events held throughout the country's dairy regions to give farmers adirect say in the National Breeding Objective, finished at the end of March."If you connect all the places on a map where events were held, the total distance covered was about 9000 kilometres — the distance the Chinese army claimed to have traversed during its famous Long March in the 1930s," Australian Dairy Herd ImprovementScheme (ADHIS) extension and education manager Michelle Axford said.
