Grazing Group
The Grazing Group is a special interest group of Watershed Landcare members who are interested in networking with other graziers in the district.
The group meets quarterly with meetings entailing a cuppa, some round-the table catch up on what’s happening on each graziers’ property, some support / new ideas/training from a guest speaker followed by a walk in the paddock.
Exploring topics such as:
• Grazing Charts, a grazing management tool that gives farmers the best prediction, and earliest warning, of an oncoming drought
• Comparing before/during/after grazing in some cells plus looks at some set-stocked paddocks
• Managing changing feed quality heading into a dry autumn
• Livestock marketing with KLR Marketing
• Discussing different approaches to pasture establishment and management
This is a great opportunity to initiate and contribute to an interesting forum of proactive and progressive ‘grass growers’.
If this sounds like something you’d like to be part of, contact Watershed Landcare Coordinator, Claudia Wythes, on 0412 011 064 or email: claudia.wythes@watershedlandcare.com.au
