• The practical management questions and conversations…
i. Will I get pasture dieback – how do I know?
ii. What can be done about pasture dieback?
iii. How is pasture dieback different to pasture rundown?
iv. Who can I contact about pasture dieback?
v. And many more…including a Q&A session (for you to ask your question).
The collaborative approach of this webinar is designed to support the ABL participants, graziers and others within the beef industry.
