Pilbara pasture identification workshop

The Pilbara Corridors project is sponsoring a series of one day pasture identification workshops for the Pilbara that aim to deliver simple, key components of grazing management to local pastoralists.

Led by Andrew Mitchell the workshops will be tailored to suit pastoralists in the west, central and eastern Pilbara. They will provide pastoralists with key information and hands-on experience in identifying and managing pasture species at a local level, including the opportunity to:

• gain the skills to identify native pasture species (grasses and shrubs) on their own properties
• better understand the relationship between different soil types and plant species expected to occur in these particular areas
• understand and identify indicator species related to land condition in lieu of the 2015 Rangeland Condition Monitoring scheme.

The days are free of charge and food and drinks will be catered for.
