Erosion Risks With High Stocking Rates At Kojonup Trial, Department Of Agriculture, Western Australia
Journal of the Department of Agriculture, Western Australia, Series 4
A pasture grazing trial at Kojonup dramatically illustrated the effects of Cyclone Alby. Severe erosion was evident on the heavily stocked plots while the more lightly stocked plots showed little damage.

Lupinosis : A Disease Still With Us, Jeremy G. Allen, P. Mcr. Wood, K. P. Crocker, J. Hamblin
Journal of the Department of Agriculture, Western Australia, Series 4
Current research on lupinosis continues to reveal what a complex problem it is, but the improved understanding should help to reduce losses.

Doublegee Control In Pasture : What Is It Worth, D J. Gilbey, R. J. Lightfoot
Journal of the Department of Agriculture, Western Australia, Series 4
A recent study showed that the cost of spraying to control a heavy doublegee infestation can be recovered in the first year of the spraying.
Flystrike In Sheep : Secondary And Tertiary Flies Striking Sheep In Western Australia, N Monzu
Flystrike In Sheep : Secondary And Tertiary Flies Striking Sheep In Western Australia, N Monzu
Journal of the Department of Agriculture, Western Australia, Series 4
Unlike primary species of blowflies, the secondary and tertiary species of flies cannot initiate a strike, but their activity in the presence of the primary blowflies becomes significant in the death of struck sheep. This is particularily so when the hairy maggot blowfly is involved. Future management of sheep flocks to minimise deaths may require recognition of these secondary and tirtiary flies.
This article presents some basic facts about these flies.
Pulling The Wool Off, Department Of Agriculture, Western Australia
