SUMMARY:Adaptive grazing for better pasture and cattle production — Spyglass Beef Research Station\, Basalt
DESCRIPTION:If you are interested in learning more about adaptive techniques for improving pastures and animal production in a variable climate\, then don’t miss next month’s field day at Spyglass Beef Research Station\, hosted by NQ Dry Tropics and the Queensland Department of Primary Industries (DPI).Get the low down on The Virtually Fencing Free long-term trial\, which is testing out technology and land management techniques to improve drought resilience for North Queensland grazing enterprises.Spyglass is hosting the five-year research project\, which aims to establish whether the eShepherd virtual fencing system could enable rangeland graziers to effectively implement fine-scale\, adaptive grazing systems in commercial-sized beef cattle herds.The technology allows users to remotely and instantly modify digital paddock boundaries to redirect cattle without the need to muster. This makes it easier to rest overgrazed paddocks and ensure cattle use all available feed.Other presenters include Amelia Downs producer Jane Moore\, and representatives from the Northern Australia Climate Program\, TEKFARM and Climate Outreach Program.Click here to reserve your spot\, or scan the QR code on the flyer. https://www.trybooking.com/events/landing/1462919Strictly RSVP by COB on Monday 1 October.
