About the McKinnon Project
Based at The University of Melbourne’s Veterinary School at Werribee on the outskirts of Melbourne, the Mackinnon Project is a recognised leader in sheep and beef consultancy both in Australia and internationally.
It offers a unique range of services, including farm management consultancy, farmer training programs, contract research and post graduate training programs.
The Mackinnon Project was established in 1982 with the specific aim of improving the productivity and profitability of sheep flocks and beef herds following a bequest from the Scobie and Claire Mackinnon Trust.
Scobie and Claire Mackinnon owned Mooramong Station at Skipton and had a strong interest in animal and veterinary science. The Mackinnon Project’s core functions include education, research and whole farm consultancy for the extensive livestock industries. It also offers consultancy services to agribusiness.
