If you're looking for ways to remove blackberries from your property, this is the field day for you!

The field day will showcase:

• A bobcat/mulcher in action removing a large, live infestation in steep country, as well as dead canes in steep country and open paddocks.
• Reducing chemical usage for on-going suppression.
• Biological controls - how do we drive the agenda?
• Helicopter spraying of blackberries, including do’s & don’ts, a chat with the pilot on how to meet legal requirements and protect native vegetation, and follow-up works with aerial seeding & fertilizing.
