pasture dieback.<\/p>\n<p>MLA defines dieback as grass dying in an entire paddock or a significant area of a paddock.<\/p>\n<p>Bluegrass pasture dieback has been reported along the coastal and inland areas of Central Queensland and in the Wide Bay Burnett.<\/p>\n<p>There are also reports of Native Bluegrass, Rhodes, Signal and Pangola grass in the Wide Bay Burnett region dying.<\/p>\n<p>DAF Senior Extension Officer Damien O\u2019Sullivan has urged all graziers with affected pasture to complete the online survey.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;It is hoped this information will help attract funds to investigate the issue,&#8221; he said.<\/p>\n<p>MLA wants to assess the spread and extent of the dieback.<\/p>\n<p>It plans to hire a drone and image analysis company to aerially map the affected areas once a month for 12 months to monitor the spread or abatement of dieback.<\/p>\n<p>The association will then add this imagery to 20-plus years of satellite imagery to enable an historic lookback at the issue.<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>External link: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.mla.com.au\/news-and-events\/industry-news\/mla-launches-action-plan-for-pasture-dieback-in-central-qld\/\" target=\"_blank\"
