The event brought together fire experts and graziers from across the region to learn and share knowledge about fire and how it can be used as an effective land management tool. It was a great day and included a field trip to Undara to see some experimental plots and learn more about how Queensland Parks and Wildlife manage fire in National Parks. Thanks to Firescape Science, QDAF, QPWS and Ewamian Aboriginal Corporation for your support of this event.
