We were lucky enough to learn all
about Good Bugs and Bad Bugs when Emma visited our
school. We met all sorts of nasty pests as well as the good bugs that help to
protect cotton crops from the nastiest. It’s a delicate balance.
On a larger scale,
effective biosecurity, this balance, can keep Australia free from many of the
pests that affect plant industries overseas. Strict biosecurity practices can
limit the effect of endemic pests by maintaining area freedom or minimising
their impacts and spread. Day-to-day, biosecurity concerns inform a range of
farm management practices and activities.
