Location of Pimelea species in Australia

Pimelea continues to challenge cattle producers across many regions of Northern and Central Australia , but understanding the plant, the risks, and the management options available can make all the difference.

Approaches to managing pimelea in grazing areas will be the topic of an upcoming webinar running under the Beef Connect series.

Join us for this practical webinar from Noon on Thursday 10 September (registration details below) as we unpack the puzzle of pimelea poisoning in livestock, including:

• How to identify different pimelea species and recognise high-risk growth stages
• Understanding how the toxin affects cattle and how to spot the signs of poisoning early

The webinar will also discuss current management strategies and introduce the new MLA-funded project, ‘Novel Options to Manage Pimelea Toxicity in Cattle’, including opportunities for producers to get involved and contribute to future solutions.

For producers who are currently dealing with pimelea, or want to be better prepared, this webinar will provide valuable insights to help protect your herd and plan ahead.
