Join us for an informative and hands-on Wildlife Waters Riparian Weeds Workshop designed for landholders looking to manage invasive riparian weeds. This essential workshop will feature expert advice from industry professionals from OzFish, Local Land Services, and Data Sense Technology, focusing on effective strategies to tackle priority weeds such as blackberries, willows (Salix cinerea), and Hemlock.

This workshop will cover both the agricultural and ecological benefits of controlling invasive plants. By managing weeds, you'll improve pasture productivity, enhance crop yields, and promote healthier soils while supporting biodiversity and protecting local wildlife habitats. Learn how early, effective weed management can lower long-term costs and labor, reduce soil erosion, and maintain a healthy landscape.

Key Activities:

• Expert talks on best practices for riparian weed management.

• Drone demonstration showcasing advanced weed detection methods.

• Hands-on willow drilling workshop.

• Networking over morning tea and lunch in a beautiful location by the Cudgegong River.

This event is part of the Wildlife Waters project, a collaborative effort supported by OzFish to improve riparian ecosystems across multiple sites along the Cudgegong River and Lawson Creek.
