Location: Kulcaway, 2291 Theodore Road, Theodore QLD 4719

Join us at a trial site to view and discuss results from the pasture dieback trials.

Pasture dieback continues to cause major feed losses across Australia, creating a need for practical management strategies to help producers maintain feed supply and reduce production impacts. While longer-term solutions are still being pursued, field trials established five years ago have provided insights into approaches that may improve pasture performance and resilience in dieback-affected areas. Sharing these results helps to support informed management decisions.

Complimentary beverages will be provided. Please bring a chair and a hat.

Topics will include

  • Management of pasture dieback – best bets

  • Walkthrough of trials – results five years after establishment

  • Producer experiences with dieback

  • Role and biology of mealybug in dieback

  • How to identify and monitor for mealybug
