Final report: VegNET 2.0 – Southern Queensland

Project report
Industry development and communication and Regional development

VegNet Southern Queensland 2.0 builds on the successful delivery of the previous vegetable extension project in the region under VegNET 1.0 (VG18003) and the networks and delivery processes that this earlier project established. Key deliverables achieved in the current project, VegNET 2.0, were the employment of a regional development officer, development of a five-year Regional Extension Plan for the region, appointment of a Regional Advisory Committee, and implementation and evaluation of the first year of the plan.

Through the process of developing a regional extension strategy, 5 sub-projects were created

  • Regional capacity building
  • Working in horticulture
  • New entrants
  • Languages other than English and
  • Diamondback moth management

The Regional capacity building project focused on key regional priorities including (but not exclusively) water security, pest management, cost of production, labour, and new markets. The aim of project activities was to provide an inclusive environment for industry people to learn and network on regional challenges impacting their business. This was achieved through regular grower seminars, newsletters, and e-news.
