On the 8th of October 2026, the Integral Health Dairy Farm hosted a field day focused on the results of the first 3 lactations. Around 100 people attended, and were split into 3 groups and rotated around the different speaker stations, hearing from Gallagher, LVS, SmaXtec, Agricom, Pioneer, McCarthy Contracting Ltd, Fertigation, Mainfert, AgRhythm, Soil Food Web, Ata Regenerative, Align Farms, Agrisea, Takiwā, Backstory, Groundshift, DairyNZ, Beef and Lamb NZ, Samen, Kemin, Advanced Feeds and Prof Pablo Gregorini (head of the Centre of Excellence: Designing Future Productive Landscapes). The speakers discussed their involvement with the Integral Health Dairy Farm and some of the results seen so far in terms of pastures, soil, production, animal health, dairy beef and much more. After hearing from all the speakers, Prof Pablo Gregorini lead the attendees on a farm walk, allowing attendees to get a closer look at the woody vegetation modules (tunas) and pasture strips. There was time for networking with the speakers and sponsors at their marquees over lunch, while attendees enjoyed coffee supplied by McCarthy Contracting Ltd and lunch provided by Samen.
