November 16th, 2022Livestock biosecurity funds grant program opens
| Applications for this year’s Livestock Biosecurity Funds Grant Program are now open. Applications must support projects and programs that prevent, monitor, and control diseases, enhancing animal health, biosecurity and market access for the benefit of Victorian cattle, sheep, goat, swine and honeybee industries. Farmers across Victoria are now also able to benefit from a series of free online learning modules, helping them protect their animals from diseases and biosecurity threats. Agriculture Victoria Animal Disease Program Coordinator, Scott McDonald, said this high-value training will better equip farmers, livestock producers, small landholders, industry workers and farm visitors with the knowledge and skills they need to ensure a safe and disease-free environment for livestock. Available through Agriculture Victoria’s website, the three learning modules have been released and each module should take approximately 15 minutes to complete. . |
