SUMMARY:Bugs Eating Your Pasture? Practical Integrated Pest Management
DESCRIPTION:Want to better understand what’s happening in your pasture\, and how to make more informed pest management decisions? \nJoin South Gippsland Landcare Network for an informative field day with leading Australian Integrated Pest Management (IPM) specialist Dr Paul Horne from IPM Technologies. \nREGISTER HERE \nPaul will be talking about pest management with minimal reliance on insecticides – called Integrated Pest Management (IPM). IPM involves using naturally occurring biological control agents and management techniques to either encourage beneficial species or discourage pests. If insecticides are involved it is as a support tool and not the mainstay of pest management. Correct identification of both pest and beneficial species is important and this means being able to recognise all life stages from egg to adult. \nLearn more about some of the common pest insects that may be impacting your pasture\, such as slugs\, redlegged earth mite\, blue oat mite\, blackheaded cockchafer and lucerne flea. \nThe session is aimed at beef\, dairy and pasture-based farmers\, but is open to anyone who is interested. Paul will be talking about: \n• Common pasture pests and the damage they cause\n• Beneficial insects and the role they play in pest control\n• Monitoring techniques to assess what is happening in your paddocks\n• The impact of pesticides on pest and beneficial species\n• Practical IPM strategies to reduce pest pressure and support healthier pastures \nThe day will include a presentation followed by a paddock walk\, giving you the chance to identify insects in the field and discuss practical management options relevant to your farm. \nMorning tea and lunch provided. \nThis event is supported by the Australian Government through funding from the National Heritage Trust under the Climate-Smart Agriculture Program
