Insect Identification and Integrated Pest Management Workshop. We held our first IPM and insect identification pest management workshop in Wagga Wagga on the 19th August. We had about 18 participants including growers and consultants. Everyone was very pleased with the I-SPY manual which should provide a valuable resource for those wishing to identify the pests and beneficials in broad acre grains crops. We plan to hold a few more of these workshops throughout the course of the project.

Multiple benfits from tree plantings for carbon farming. Tree planting for carbon can potentially also provide a range of other benefits beyond just carbon. For the farmer this includes pest control and pollination services to crops, protection of livestock, and a reduction in soil erosion and salinity. For the wider community this could include increased water quality and more habitat for species such as birds. Dr. Brenda Lin. And collaborators (including myself) have just published an article in.
