Message from the Editor

Welcome to edition #339 of the Katherine Rural Review, for the second quarter of 2019.

The last couple of months have been quite busy around Katherine and also Douglas Daly with the recent Northern Territory Pathways to Potential agricultural field days. Both days were informative with a fantastic turnout at both events. Refer to page 2 – 12 for a summary of the events.

The annual Department of Primary Industry and Resources (DPIR) bull sale is coming up very quickly on the Tuesday 18 June, for further details see page 13.

A lot has been happening across our plant industries, livestock, horticulture, biosecurity and animal health departments. Read on to find out more.

We would also appreciate feedback regarding what information you would like to see in the Katherine Rural Review moving forward. Please do not hesitate to contact us at krs.dpir@nt.gov.au. Help us keep you better informed.

Cheers,

The Editor
