Agriculture Victoria Podcast: Winning the battle with weeds with Jacob Pearce
We are a massive fan of Landcare champion Jacob Pearce, and what he has achieved in the Rowsley Valley regarding his battle with serrated tussock. He has set a great standard and a deep understanding of what causes serrated tussock to spread across the landscape and how to prevent the devastation this invasive grass can cause to the landscape.
Jacob was recently interviewed on AgVic Talk, which is a podcast series managed by Agriculture Victoria, regarding his learnings and successes in managing invasive plants on his property. Please find the link below, as well as a description of the Biosecurity Basics stories and how to access them.
Well done Jacob, keep up the great work, inspiring others in your community and beyond.
