The September meeting was held at Bill and Marion Denniss’ property in Heath Hill. It was a cold, windy day but the participan­ts were well protected by weatherpro­of blinds and comforted with a gas heater.

Gaye Cameron was the guest presenter for the meeting. Gaye gave an absorbing presentati­on on pastures.

She covered the growth characteri­stics of a range of grasses, the optimum time to graze the various grasses and measures that can be taken to minimise weeds.

The next activity for the group will be held next Saturday at Tony and Sharon Wrobel’s property in Allambee Reserve.

The topic for the day is ‘Grazing and Pasture Management’. John Gallienne, a Warragul agronomist, will be the guest presenter for the day.

John’s knowledge and expertise, gained from years of experience, is renowned, and it will be a valuable learning experience for all members
