Workshop: TPP update (Creswick)
19 December 2017 @ 7:00 pm - 8:30 pm
To help Victorian growers find out more about the behaviour, management and current situation of the recent tomato potato psyllid incursion in Western Australia, AUSVEG is partnering with a range of other industry organisations to deliver two workshops in major Victorian potato-growing regions. The event is open to all vegetable growers and any other interested stakeholders.
These workshops have been coordinated with Agriculture Victoria, the Tasmanian Institute of Agriculture and ViCSPA, with support fromPlant Health Australia and Hort Innovation. A collection of speakers will help growers understand how the incursion impacts on the Victorian growing industry, and will include international expert Dr Steve Johnson, a potato crop specialist visiting ViCSPA from the University of Maine.
A free BBQ dinner and drinks will be provided following these workshops.
To RSVP for either of these events, please contact ViCSPA on 03 5962 0000 or at vicspa@vicspa.org.au. For more information, please see the event flyer.
