Barkly Beef 1 June 2005
Barkly Beef Production on the Right Course
Participants from Amungee Mungee, Anthony Lagoon, Avon Downs, Brunette Downs, Beetaloo, Brunchilly, Eva Downs, Helen Springs and Walhallow stations recently attended the annual Barkly Herd Management course hosted by Helen Springs (S. Kidman & Co.) and Eva Downs (Heytesbury Beef) Stations. Conducted over 3 days the course offered participants the opportunity to observe two different management styles and production
systems aimed at station middle management, including assistant managers and head stockmen. Topics covered in this years course included beef production, natural resource management, ruminant nutrition, breeding stock selection, weaner management and supplementation strategies. Updates were also given on research conducted by DBIRD, Beef Quality CRC and Heytesbury Beef.

An expert group of guest speakers delivered informative and interactive presentations on a range of topics. Geoff Murrell, Manager of Helen Springs Station, gave a brief outline of the current management system on Helen Springs including breeder herd management and the transition from Stanbroke to Kidman ownership. Chris Materne of DBIRD presented the findings of his extensive research into the role of fire on the Barkly following a 5 year study. John Bertram and Rebecca Farrell of the Beef Quality CRC presented results from the latest breeding research and how to apply these results to beef production. They also talked about the role of consumer demands in the beef production supply chain, incorporating the MSA grading system and how this influences decision making in beef production enterprises. John also conducted live cattle assessment of steers and heifers in the yards at Helen Springs. DBIRD vet Dr. Gehan Jayawardhana presented the results of tropically adapted cattle breeding trials and gave a practical demonstration of a bull breeding soundness evaluation. Dr Darryl Savage, Animal Nutrition Lecturer from the University of New England and a former Pastoral Production Officer with DBIRD in Tennant Creek was welcomed back to the Barkly. Darryl facilitated a group discussion on cattle nutritional requirements, supplementation and the decision-making processes associated
with herd and pasture management. He continued these discussions with an emphasis on ruminant nutrition centred on the energy and protein requirements of cattle, the anatomical features of the rumen and how dietary requirements are obtained. On Day 2 the course travelled to Eva Downs, where Heytesbury Beef’s Manager of Research and Development, Dr Steve Petty focussed on the incorporation of research and development projects into Heytesbury’s commercial operations. Steve then teamed up with Ian Hoare, Manager of Eva Downs to outline the weaner management strategies in place at the station. The group then toured the weaner management complex where the weaners are handled. They discussed feeding regimes, supplementation, water medication and the progression of animals through this system. In his capacity as Leader of the “Pigeon Hole Project” Steve offered the latest research findings and developments of this collaborative DBIRD and Heytesbury project, investigating different grazing systems and their implementation in Northern Australia. Course organiser Ruth Allan, Pastoral Production Officer with DBIRD in Tennant Creek, commented, “The strengths of the course were the quality of the presenters and the enthusiasm of the participants. The contribution of the host stations was fantastic and their involvement added a great practical dimension to the course”.

A Word from the Regional Director
Since the last Barkly Beef there has been significant changes around the office including a departmental name change. DBIRD is no longer with two new departments taking over the operations. These are the Department of Primary Industry, Fisheries and Mines (DPIFM) and the Department of Business, Economic and Regional Development (DBERD). You can still expect the same great service from a dedicated staff. There have also been staff changes around the office with Genevieve Nash moving on to DPI Longreach and Natalie Koehn moving to the Department of Education here in Tennant Creek. We thank both for their service to DBIRD. Julie Marsh is our new Administration Officer and will be the friendly voice who answers the phone. Margaret and I have been warmly welcomed by the 'Barkly Region" on all our travels, whether socially, or attending meetings on behalf of DBIRD. The show was another great opportunity to meet with many of you. Congratulations to all who attended and entered cattle in the show for helping to make it a very successful event. During June the Pastoral Production Staff ( Andy Bubb & Ruth Allan), assisted by Tom Haines , Ted Martin and Jenny Purdie, have been kept busy travelling across the Region on Drought
Inspections. Across the Northern Territory 52 properties sought Drought status applications, with about 18 of these on the Barkly. Having completed the physical inspections, all reports were recorded and were supplemented by mapping overlays including pasture growth and rain charts and stock movement records. These reports have been centralised in Alice Springs under extremely tight "private - confidential" arrangements. The Tennant Creek Staff handled this logistical challenge very professionally, and I offer my congratulations to all concerned. I attended the Combined N.T.C.A. and BLCA held at Brunette. As well as meeting more of the residents of the region, I was able to take away from the meeting the concerns expressed that I may be able to influence. Among the next meetings I will attend is, the Gulf Extension Group (Regional Development Project) held in mid August. These meetings offer the services of other Government Departmental Officers, to assist in regional development where required. If I can influence any outcomes from this gathering, to help in any way to improve life in the Barkly region, or if you have problems I can take to these meetings please don't hesitate to call me.

2005 Tennant Creek and District Show Cattle Section Round Up
Ruth Allan (Pastoral Technical Officer)
The grass is always greener…at the dog pavilion! Not even the absence of the usually splendid showground lawn could detract from the great time that was had by all at this year’s Tennant Creek Show. The stations of the Barkly supported the cattle section wholeheartedly with exhibitors travelling from all corners of the district to show their cattle. The quality of representation in all classes provided our section’s judge, Jack Clanchy (Landmark- Alice Springs) with a decidedly difficult task. Winners from the steer and heifer classes were especially tough to pick, as entrants in the judging competition found out. The young exhibitors who participated in the led calf class impressed the judge immensely with their handling skills and enthusiasm. The Pastoral Industry BBQ, made possible by our generous sponsors, provided a good atmosphere for exhibitors and spectators to discuss the final results. Thank-you very much to all the sponsors of the 2005 Tennant Creek and District Show-Cattle Section. Without your generous support events like this would not be possible. Thanks must also go to the Chief Cattle Steward, Geoff Murrell and the Cattle Section Judge, Jack Clanchy. Their assistance and support contributed in no small part to the resounding success that was this year’s cattle section.
Congratulations to all exhibitors who participated in the 2005 Tennant Creek and District Show cattle section. Thank you very much for your support and I look forward to seeing you at next year’s Show (hopefully with a bit of green grass under our boots!)

4th Annual NT Droughtmaster Bull Sale
The morning of Saturday 9th July 2005 saw the continued success of the Annual NT Droughtmaster Sale. Buyers from Alice Springs, Borroloola, Katherine and across the Barkly travelled to Tennant Creek for the sale and were not disappointed by the impressive line-up of bulls. The buyers paid an average of $3467 for the 61 quality bulls that were
offered for sale by NT Droughtmaster Sale Group. This price was $450 above last year’s average price. Wally Klein, Orange Creek Station, Alice Springs, paid the top price of $5750 for a 20-month old herd bull offered by the Glenlands stud. The vendors once again pleased to announce a 100 per cent clearance rate for their sale.

Update on TFAP 2 in the Territory. The Tuberculosis Freedom Assurance Program Part 2 is now into it’s third year and no TB cases have been found in the country in this time. This is great news for the cattle industry, which has invested heavily in this program.
Monitoring programs, including meat inspection, are winding down. Negotiations are proceeding for a further agreement for 2007 and beyond; to manage any TB cases that may be found. More complete details in a recent report can be found at the DBIRD internet page on TFAP; http://www.primaryindustry.nt.gov.au

Welfare of Extensively Managed Livestock in Dry
Periods The Territory is currently experiencing below average pastoral conditions that are not likely to improve before the next wet season. Other parts of Australia are also affected and this has a compounding effect on livestock movements. Cattle producers should be considering their options to minimise the overall impact on their animals, their business and the cattle industry. DBIRD has produced an agnote that outlines a reasonable course of action for pastoralists to take in relation to animal welfare. The NTCA has contributed to the paper.
The overall position is that it can be considered reasonable to maintain animals in a lesser body condition than under normal circumstances, but it is unreasonable to let animals die in the paddock. A plan must be in place to protect livestock for as long as possible and to deal with the situation when all other measures have failed. The paper can be found at the DBIRD animal web site under animal welfare. http://www.dbird.nt.gov.au/ or for further information talk to your stock inspector or veterinarian.

MORTALITIES FALL FOR LIVE CATTLE AND SHEEP EXPORTS
Nationally cattle mortalities fell to 0.10% among the 610,000 exported during 2004. Exports to S.E. Asia were characterised by small consignments on short voyages with very low mortalities. Exports from Darwin (182,000 cattle) had the low mortality rate of 0.04% (4/10,000). No mortalities were recorded on half of the voyages to S.E. Asia. Sheep mortalities fell to a record low mortality rate of 0.75% from a total of 3.3 million sheep exported during 2004. Mortalities have steadily decreased from 1.26 % in 2001. While the mortality rates are acceptable, all sectors of the industry
must work to minimise stress and mortality during export of livestock. New export export standards have been operational during 2005 and will be continually monitored and reviewed. There is a research program to provide gaps in scientific knowledge. This summary is extracted from a report on national livestock exports mortality summary 2004 compiled by the Western Australia Department of Agriculture and Meat and Livestock Australia. Dick Morton

Investigation of Parkinsonia Dieback
During April Dr Vic Galea, PhD student Naomi Diplock (University of Queensland, Gatton) and myself spent a week at Newcastle Waters Station (Consolidated Pastoral Company) studying Parkinsonia dieback sites and setting up a research trial.
There have been reports of dieback within populations in various parts of Australia, although until now, combined with the Barkly Landcare and Conservation Association and University of Queensland, Gatton in particular Dr Vic Galea there has been no intensive studies undertaken.
Dr Vic Galea of the university of Queensland drilling into the base of the Parkinsonia
Parkinsonia Dieback is a disorder which causes Parkinsonia plants to dieback from the tips; the leaves droop, turn brown and remain attached to the plant, eventually the plant dies. Dieback progresses through Parkinsonia populations as a front and kills both adult and juvenile plants. Preliminary studies by Dr Vic Galea indicate that the disease may be caused by a fungal pathogen which travels through the stem. It can be recognised by brown staining of the plant’s vascular tissue. The aim of the research is to confirm the true cause of the disease and evaluate it as a possible biological control agent for Parkinsonia. Two promising pathogens have been isolated from diseased samples from
the Barkly and are the focus of initial studies. The recent trial sites set up on Newcastle Waters Station will investigatethe pathogen responsible for the dieback with the intention to develop a biological control agent. The field work involved inoculating healthy Parkinsonia plants with the test pathogens; this involved using a spore suspension of isolates previously made from infected plants collected from that location. The suspension was applied to plants after various wounding methods (hole drilled into stem, stem scraping, root damage or un- wounded control).The trial sites will be monitored over time for successful infection and dieback symptoms. The ecology of the dieback will be explored, looking at the disease cycle in the field and it’s movements through stands of Parkinsonia. Questions such
Barkly Beef 14 June 2005
as how the pathogen invades and affects the host and how the pathogen moves through a population will become clearer. If the biology of the pathogen is suitable to use as a biological control agent, then biological control methodology will be developed. It is envisaged that this will involve developing mass rearing methods and inoculation techniques that can easily be implemented by landholders. A sampling protocol and survey is being developed that will enable landholders to return dieback samples for further investigation. This will allow us to see if the disease is caused by the same species/race Australia wide and whether pathogens are always the causal agent of dieback. The surveys will help determine the extent of dieback distribution.
Naomi Diplock is undertaking this Postgraduate project and will also be conducting a range of experiments under controlled conditions in a glasshouse. Different isolates will be tested for virulence on Parkinsonia in the glasshouse and cross infection studies will be carried out on isolates from different regions. Soil samples from different areas will also indicate if the pathogen is present but not affecting other vegetation. The Barkly Landcare group will be sourcing further funding to ensure the continuation of the project. Colleen Westover BLCA Facilitator
Business and Trade Hello to everyone and It was good to catch up with many of you at the TC Show. I would like to thank once again all of the people who have offered advice and support to our Pastoralist Invitation Day. During the next couple of weeks you will all receive the revised edition of the Barkly Business Guide. We have had plenty of great feedback on the publication and the new one is even better. It is also possible to find the guide on the web. If you look up www.tbc.nt.gov.au then go to publications and click on Barkly Business Directory. In order to assist businesses to attract staff to Tennant Creek we have commissioned a DVD to be made entitled “Living and Working in Tennant Creek”. Once this has been produced it will be available free of charge to any local business, department or organisation so they may send to prospective employees etc. If you feel such a product would benefit your employment strategy, particularly the stations nearer Tennant then
please contact the office and we will send one out to you. I have mentioned previously that our goal is to ensure all stations receive the information on which business style workshops we are holding during the year. We are now in a position to plan a year in advance as to what workshops will be available and as soon as the schedule is known we will forward them out to you so if you are planning a visit and the topic is of interest you may attend. Please feel free to contact our office if we can be of any assistance in any business related areas. Cheers Peter Davenport Regional Manager Business and Trade

AussieGRASS
What can it tell us about the Drought? AussieGRASS models pasture growth and standing pasture dry matter. The model uses: rainfall, climate, soil and pasture type information to estimate grass growth in 5km square grids across Australia (This means that pasture growth is averaged across all the land within a 5km square area. So it will average over creek lines and hills if they are within that 5km square area). DBIRD is at present testing the accuracy and usefulness of this model’s predictions and the use in determining exceptional circumstances during drought for the NT.

Play a role in tracking a nomadic wanderer – the Flock Pigeon
Flock Pigeons are most frequently seen coming to drink at dams or turkey-nests in the early morning and late afternoon.
They tend to occur in groups, and fly in a fast tightly-wheeling flock in a similar fashion to racing pigeons
Researchers are calling on resident pastoralists to become part of a new three year research project that aims to examine the ecology and management requirements of the Flock Pigeon. Flock Pigeons are a large, strong-flying native pigeon that are characteristic of black-soil grasslands. Flock Pigeons were formerly abundant throughout semi-arid Australia, often found in ‘countless millions’. Over the last century their population has declined substantially and vanished from large areas where they were formerly common. Peter Dostine, a PhD student from Australian National University (ANU) will lead the research project with the support of the Australian Research Council and the Northern Territory Department of Infrastructure, Planning and Environment. “We don’t know much about this bird, but believe they are nomadic seed
eaters that can travel large distances to locate feeding areas after good rainfall,” he said. He said that this mobility made it very difficult to devise conservation strategies for the birds in small fixed reserve areas. Throughout the study Flock Pigeons will be regularly captured and sampled to obtain data on diet and body condition. Some birds will be fitted with satellite transmitters to gain an understanding of habitat use and when, where and why these birds move about their extensive range, as conditions change. The stronghold of these birds is now thought to be in the Barkly Tableland in the Northern Territory and the Channel Country in Queensland, where they can sometimes still occur in flocks of thousands. Resident pastoralists throughout the range of the Flock Pigeon can make a significant contribution to this work.
Barkly Beef 18 June 2005
Later this year (2005) a survey will be posted to pastoralists throughout northern and central Australia, seeking information on if and when the birds have been seen on their property. Mr Dostine said that working with pastoralists on the project will provide a long-term landholder perspective on the ecology of this species.
“We hope the project can provide insights as to how country can best be managed for both pastoral productivity and the maintenance of habitat for wildlife like the Flock Pigeon, to ensure they remain and inspiring feature of our landscape,” he said. Peter can be contacted by telephone on (08) 448 475, by email at [email protected], or by mail at PO Box 496, Palmerston, NT 0831.
