NQ Dry Tropics GRAZING FORUM

The Collinsville Region Regenerative Grazier Network is proudly hosting RCS Consulting advisor George Stacey in Bowen to discuss grazing management options for improving herd performance, ecosystem function and business profitability.
The network is testing regenerative grazing practices across a wide range of environments and commercial scales, to demonstrate how livestock can improve soil biology, and stimulate production of quality pasture through livestock impacts while improving herd performance. The practices require an integrated approach and all facets of the enterprise are equally important.
This is a Meat and Livestock Australia (MLA) Producer Demonstration Site workshop. NQ Dry Tropics has partnered with MLA to demonstrate regenerative Burdekin grazing practices.
The five-year project will provide critical herd performance, pasture management and soil health data for the increasing number of graziers undertaking regenerative grazing practices in the Bowen and Collinsville areas.
The workshop is also supported by Landholders Driving Change (LDC) funded by the partnership between the Australian Government’s Reef Trust and the Great Barrier Reef Foundation.
