Boosting Pasture Productivity Through Sown Pastures & Legumes | Toogoolawah

What are the opportunities to improve your pasture system this summer?

This workshop is designed for producers looking to increase pasture productivity, improve grazing resilience, and integrate proven sown grass and legume species into their pasture systems for long-term benefits.

The session aims to equip producers with the knowledge and confidence to make informed decisions on pasture improvement using sown species, tailored to their specific land, climate, and business goals.

What you’ll gain from the day:

• Learn about the latest research and practical insights into sown pasture and legume systems.

• Understand reliable methods for establishing and improving sown pastures in various soil and climate conditions.

• Discover grass and legume species best suited to your region, production goals, and system requirements.

• Hear directly from local producers who have successfully integrated legumes and sown grasses to boost performance and sustainability.

Catering and support material will be provided.

Participants will leave with clear, region-specific management strategies and action plans to establish and maintain productive sown pastures and legumes, enhancing feed quality, soil health, and pasture longevity.
