Plant Health Australia (PHA), the Grains Research and Development Corporation (GRDC) and Grain Producers Australia (GPA) have partnered to deliver a new webinar series focused on biosecurity in the grains industry.
Wheat blast is a serious and rapidly developing fungal disease that primarily infects wheat, but oats, barley, triticale and certain grasses. Wheat blast can devastate entire crops, resulting in yield losses of up to 100 per cent. Although Australia remains free from wheat blast, its increasing global spread highlights the need for strong on-farm biosecurity practices and early detection.
Everyone who enters a farm has a role to play in maintaining strong biosecurity practices. This is essential not only for protecting your flock or herd, but for safeguarding Australia’s broader livestock industries.
Animal Health Australia is calling on cattle producers to support the National Arbovirus Monitoring Program (NAMP) — a program that helps protect Australia’s livestock export markets.
Unusual signs in livestock? Don’t wait. Early reporting is one of the most effective ways to stop the spread of serious diseases, protect your animals, and support Australia’s biosecurity.
With engaging, age-appropriate content for primary and secondary students, the Youth Biosecurity Hub makes it easy for educators, parents and community groups to explore biosecurity and inspire young Australians to take action.
