Australia - Benalla beef producers

20 Jul 2012

Benalla’s beef producers are invited to attend a farm business security workshop on cattle health, disease management and industrial relations on Tuesday, 24 July.

 

Hosted by the Victorian Farmers Federation Livestock Group, the forum provides up-to-date information on disease management and can answer farmers’ questions on issues like unfair dismissal and award wages.

Producers will also have the opportunity to learn about the new Bovine Johne’s Disease management rules which were introduced across Australia this month.

Sessions include: Industrial relations: unfair dismissal, performance management, underpayments and the pastoral award; OH&S: Including quad bikes and helmets; Pestivirus: How to detect it and how to minimise its impact on your herds; and Bovine Johne’s Disease: Explaining the new national management program.

The forum runs from 10am – 3pm at Benalla Department of Primary Industries.

The cost is $10 for VFF members and $15 for non-members and includes lunch.

RSVP: Charlotte Fox by phone on 03 9207 5547 or email cfox@vff.org.au
