Pasture dieback is causing major feed losses in Australia. Because of this there is an urgent need to develop strategies to provide feed for stock while a solution for the disease is being developed. While longer term solutions are ultimately needed, short term management strategies that can reduce the impact of the disease need to be developed and communicated.

You are invited to visit a trial site, to view and discuss the results of pasture dieback trials.

Topics will include:

Management of pasture dieback - best bets
Walkthrough of trials - results 3 years after establishment
Peoples experience with dieback
Role of mealybug in dieback and their biology
How to look for and monitor for mealy bug

Beverages will be provided.

Meet the guest speakers:

Gordon Rogers, Managing Director, Applied Horticultural Research (AHR)
Naomi Diplock, Lead Researcher for pasture dieback trials, Applied Horticultural Research (AHR)
Caroline Hauxwell, Associate Professor at Queensland University of Technology (QUT)
