Pasture dieback is a condition that kills sown and native summer growing pastures. It starts as small patches and can spread to affect large areas.
Southern Cross University has established a range of trial and demonstration sites across the NSW north coast to help improve producers’ understanding of how best to respond to pasture dieback.
Researchers are looking at which grass species are more resilient and what management options have worked for producers across different landscapes.
This page includes links to regular updates and videos, and some key resources for the NSW north coast.
