Regional drought resilience program planning — Bundaberg
2025-12-04 09:00 - 12:30 (Australia/Brisbane) | Bundaberg Multiplex Centre, 1 Civic Street, Bundaberg West, Qld, 4670, Australia
Regional Development Australia invites community input to help co-design practical projects that bring the Burnett and Mary Regional Drought Resilience Plans to life. Your ideas and local knowledge will help shape initiatives that strengthen our communities.
During 2023/24, a team from UniSQ worked with Regional Development Australia Wide Bay Burnett to carry out extensive stakeholder engagement and develop the Mary and the Burnett Regional Drought Resilience Plans (RDRPs). These two RDRPs both contain Action Plans that broadly describe initiatives that stakeholders across the region recommended to lessen the impacts of drought and build future resilience. Now that the RDRPs have been formally approved by the State and the Australian governments, we move forward in developing an implementation plan and turn the broad initiatives into ‘fundable’ projects.
We invite you to work with us as interested stakeholders to gather your ideas and inputs and co-design a series of project outlines based on the broad ideas in the RDRP Action Plans. We are holding a series of short but interactive workshops to gather advice on the important steps and elements needed to most effectively implement these projects in the Mary and Burnett regions. You will also get a chance to let us know which of the projects you think are a regional priority to build resilience for future droughts.

JAB Agri Solutions Compliance and technology: workshop 3 — Pittsworth
2025-12-08 08:30 - 16:00 | Pittsworth Function Centre, 42 Hume Street, Pittsworth, Qld, 4356, Australia
Compliance doesn’t have to be complicated. In this one-day workshop, we break down LPA, NLIS, PIC, and CVD requirements into clear, simple steps you can actually follow. You’ll also learn how to build a practical biosecurity plan, record livestock movements, and explore easy-to-use technology like NLIS readers, eNVDs, and scales. The day is fully catered, with guest speakers on hand to share insights, and you’ll leave with resources, checklists, and digital tools to take the stress out of compliance.
Why it matters
Strong records and biosecurity practices aren’t just red tape—they protect your livestock, your property, and the wider red meat industry. Getting compliance right opens up more market opportunities, builds trust in your livestock, and gives you peace of mind. This workshop helps you simplify the process, get hands-on with tools, and ask the questions you’ve always wanted answered.
Who it’s for?

Producers who feel overwhelmed by NLIS, LPA, and biosecurity rules

Hobby farmers wanting confidence they’re “doing it right”

Small-scale operators who want simple systems and digital tools

Anyone ready to reduce paperwork stress and safeguard their farm
