Native pastures can be a sustainable and productive choice for livestock production.
Deferred grazing strategies address several key measures of pasture performance that contribute to the successful rejuvenation of native pastures.
Onion grass and broadleaf weeds can be controlled in established pastures using a registered metsulfuron-methyl and compatible broadleaf herbicide.
Catchment management problems arise when the soil water cycle becomes unbalanced due to landscape function changes.
It is important to have an effective broadleaf weed management program going into late autumn and winter.
Native vegetation is well adapted to the harsh Australian environment and provides essential ecosystem services.
Native pastures play an important role in livestock nutrition for some farmers, particularly those in the North East.
We acknowledge the traditional Aboriginal Owners of Country throughout Victoria, their ongoing connection to this land and we pay our respects to their culture and their Elders past, present and future.
