SUMMARY:Webinar: Lessons learnt from a career as a Farm Adviser
DESCRIPTION:Home / WebinarDavid Harbison (D R Agriculture) will reflect on his experiences and pass on his thoughts of ‘key lessons’ he learnt in his younger days\, and how those lessons set a path to where he is today. His passion for soil and plant science is a key strength. \nThat passion remains strong\, as does his relationships with many professionals and soil scientists which are a constant resource for David and provide a connection to the current research. The value of those relationships is critical to “getting the best out of experts” and David encourages all soil scientists and experts listening to be open to helping our ‘next generation’. Social discussion is as important as the detail. \nYou MUST register to attend the FREE webinar and/or gain access to the recording if you are unable to attend on the day.

Most of the crops we eat are pollinated by bees\, with nearly two-thirds of Australia’s agricultural production benefiting from bee pollination. Bees also play important roles in seed production as well as the quality of fruit and vegetables. \nTo register click here \nSpeaker #1 – Dr. Romina Rader – Importance of bees in Australian food productions systems. \nDr Romina Rader is a community ecologist and her research focuses on plant–animal interactions in\nnatural and human-modified landscapes. She is interested generally in the ecology of plants and animals\nin different types of habitats and landscapes and how they respond to differing management practices\nand global change. Her current projects relate to wild and managed insect pollinators\, their efficiency at\npollinating horticultural crops and the ecology and conservation of remnant vegetation. For more information about Romina click here. \nSpeaker #2 – Dr. Cameron Spurr – Importance of bees in carrot seed production in Tasmania \nDr. Cameron Spurr is the Managing Director of seedPurity.  seedPurity is a leading provider of applied seed technology to the forestry and vegetable seed industries in Australia and New Zealand.
