PADDOCK PLANT ID FIELD DAY

What are the native and introduced plants growing in your paddock? If you’d like help working out what you have, what to keep, what weeds to focus on and how to look after your pasture or native grassland, come along to this field day on Thursday 4 April 2019, 9.30am-12.30pm between Bega and Cobargo.

Organised by the CMN, Local Land Services and the Farmers’ Network, with botanist Jackie Miles, LLS staff and BVSC weeds’ staff, this will be a practical, paddock-based field day for both farmers and conservation land managers focusing on:

– identifying introduced and native pasture plants
– understanding the relative feed value of your pasture plants
– maintaining native grassland
– weeds to watch for and how to manage them.

The field day is free and morning tea is provided.

The DPI publications, ‘Grasses of Coastal NSW’ and ‘Legumes and Herbs of Coastal NSW’ will be available at a subsidised price.
