Rice Connect is a national rice industry event delivered by the Ricegrowers’ Association of Australia (RGA). It brings together rice growers, researchers, agronomists, industry partners, processors, advisors, and leaders from across the Australian rice sector.

Designed as a focused and streamlined gathering, Rice Connect provides an opportunity to share industry updates, highlight innovation, and build strong connections. Held in the years between Australian Rice Conferences, the event supports collaboration, celebrates industry achievement, and helps strengthen the future of Australian rice.

Rice Connect combines several key industry activities into one streamlined event. While the program may change each year, it often includes:

• The Rice Industry Awards and Gala Dinner, celebrating achievement and contribution

• The RGA Annual General Meeting, giving members a voice in the industry’s direction

• Industry breakfasts and networking events

• Guest speakers and industry leaders sharing insights

• Research and extension updates relevant to rice growers

Each part of the program is designed to be useful, relevant, and easy to engage with.
