SE QLD: Equine nutrition, pasture management & property planning workshops

In February South East QLD catchments organised a number of workshops in the Gold Coast and Sunshine Coast region. The workshops were well visited and we got a lot of positive feedback. The workshops were presented in blocks with an introduction workshop on integrated equine nutrition & pasture management and a follow up workshop on property planning.

These workshops were based on half day, so they only provide small snippets of information on a number of topics to help you with your research and management. It is unfortunately not possible to discuss all the aspects of horse nutrition, care, pasture management and property planning in half a day!  It is merely to give you some ideas and principles. For a personal approach you still requires individual consulting with experts to review your property, horse management and feeding management. Nonetheless, it will provide you with an good overview and a starting point to find out more about certain topics! We asked the participants which topics they would like to see back in a new workshop:

• Pasture ID & planting (incl weed ID)
• Grazing planning
• Water management/harvesting
• (Native) vegetation / replanting
• Habitat & biodiversity
• Equine Nutrition
• Manure management & Composting techniques
