Grazing Land Management EDGE - Monto

Grazing land management (GLM) EDGE is a three-day workshop to give you a thorough understanding of the grazing land environment in which you operate – it will provide you with knowledge to strategically manage your grazing business so you can optimise your land condition and productivity in the long-term.
Attending this workshop will help you to:
• understand how your land types influence productivity
• recognise the dominant land types in your region and on your property
• critically assess different grazing systems
• understand how soil properties influence plant growth
• understand soil health and the factors that impact on it
• know what land condition is, how it’s assessed, and how to manage livestock to maintain or achieve good condition
• understand the role of fire in your country
• understand the role of sown pastures in grazing and legumes, including the management of pasture rundown and pasture dieback
• understand the principles and planning steps for successfully managing weeds.
What you will learn:
• selective grazing, its function, and how to reduce impacts
• how to identify key plant species
• the ecosystem processes that underpin productivity
• basic principles of effective grazing systems
• how to assess long term carrying capacity of paddocks and properties
• forage budgeting to manage variation in pasture on offer
