Please plan to arrive by 9:30am, to register and settle in for a great day.

  

10:00am - 11:15am | Guest Speaker

Dr Anthony Rice, Granite Belt Integrated Pest Management Global

Ant is and Insect Ecologist and IPM consultant who delivers engaging talks on the global threat to invertebrates and the cost of this lost biodiversity. He discusses current drivers for insect decline and presents some easy steps that farmers, gardeners and consumers more broadly can take to help find the balance between the drive to feed a growing population and the stewardship of the future landscape we leave our children. His talks are always moving, and he welcomes questions and discussions, and respects a diversity of thoughts and opinions.

 

[There will be a quick break for morning tea between our guest speaker and the General Meeting proceedings].
