Smarter weed management workshop Camden 16 September

This workshop will help you assess your paddocks, interpret what the plants are telling you, and explore soil-based strategies for long-term improvement.

Event Description: 
Join this workshop, hosted by Greater Sydney Local Land Services and facilitated by Kim Deans from Reinventing Agriculture, to gain practical tools and a fresh approach to managing weeds. The session focuses on soil health and offers strategies for dealing with thistles, fireweed, or pasture decline.

• Preventing weed infestations.

• Options for managing weeds.

• The benefits of a holistic approach to weed management.

• Developing a holistic weed plan.

Drawing on leading regenerative principles and research, this evidence-based workshop is designed for small to medium-sized farms and includes a practical paddock weed walk and talk. Similar workshops will be held at Camden (17 Sept), Kurrajong (18 Sept), and Dooralong (19 Sept).
