In this webinar, Dr. Yolanda Hanusch – Sustainable Agricultural Facilitator – NRM South, will explore the realm of flower-feeding insects and their crucial role in agricultural production and healthy environments. Drawing on her extensive research at the University of Sydney, Yolanda will share insights on different flower-feeding insects found at market gardens and apple/blueberry orchards of Tasmania.
During the webinar, you will learn:
- which pollinators are attracted to crops grown in Tasmania
- what management strategies can be used to support pollinators and natural pest enemies
- ways to enhance both ecosystem (pollination/natural pest control) and overall biodiversity services
