grader

Grader expert comes to the north

6 August 2010

Most properties regularly use a grader to make tracks, roads and fence lines but they can do so at the expense of the soil. Erosion can be caused by inappropriate use of graders.

Natural resource management groups NQ Dry Tropics and Desert Uplands Committee are holding a workshop about how to use dozers without causing soil erosion.

Weeds of Our Region

NQ Dry Tropics helps to coordinate the management of weeds. We have a plan (the Pest Management Strategy) that identifies target weeds in order of priority. It also outlines who is responsible for managing them.

Introduction

The dry tropics has many established and emerging tree, shrub, grass and water weeds.
