Parrot Damage To Bluegum Tree Crops : A Review Of The Problem And Possible Solutions, P Ritson
Parrot Damage To Bluegum Tree Crops : A Review Of The Problem And Possible Solutions, P Ritson
Resource management technical reports
Damage to Bluegum (Eucalyptus globulus) tree crops by the Twenty-eight Parrot (Barnardius zonarius) is emerging problem which could threaten the viability of the infant Bluegum industry in south-western Australia. The parrots strip bark from the lead shoot of the Bluegums causing the shoots to break off. Consequently lateral shoots develop resulting in deformed (bent or multi-stem) trees unsuited to harvest and utilisation.Indications that the reason Twenty-eight Parrots strip bark from Bluegum is to obta behaviour' and hence the damage may also develop in areas where it is absent or uncommon now. Currently the zone of worst damage includes around 20% …

Processing Results Of Western Australian Wool, John Stanton A/Prof, Lindy Coss, Peter Metcalf
Resource management technical reports
Despite a perception by some that Western Australian wool 'processes poorly', this study found that the consignments processed:
1. into longer tops suited for worsted weaving
2. into longer than predicted tops
3. with the same consistency as other Australian consignments
A Key To The Species Of Bluebushes (Maireana Species) Of The Arid Southern Shrublands Of Western Australia, H J. Pringle, R Cranfield
A Key To The Species Of Bluebushes (Maireana Species) Of The Arid Southern Shrublands Of Western Australia, H J. Pringle, R Cranfield
Resource management technical reports
This key has been produced to make identification of Maireana species (the bluebushes) easier in the arid shrublands region of Western Australia. It attempts to use everyday terms rather than technical botanical terms wherever possible and includes an illustrated diagram for ease of identification. A flow diagram - as opposed to traditional botanical keys - allows for visual tracking of steps taken in the key and hence makes it easier to backtrack if the final identified species seems incorrect.Fruit chacters alluded to at various steps in the key are also presented, and drawings of each species fruits are also included …

Remnant Vegetation Inventory On The Southern Agricultural Areas Of Western Australia., G R. Beeston, G Mlodowski, A Sanders, D True
Resource management technical reports
Remnant vegetation mapping and its incorporation into a Geographical Information System (GIS) data base is the first stage in an overall documentation and promotion of conservation of remnant vegetation in Western Australia. The primary objective of this project being to determine the amount, distribution and regional location of native vegetation remaining on private land in the agricultural area of south-west Western Australia.
