If you have any diet, health, accommodation requirements please confirm them with the Assembly Secretariat. Maps Enclosed in your confirmation package you will find three maps. The yellow map is of McGregor College, the pink map is of the University of Southern Queensland and the blue map is of Toowoomba for those of you unfamiliar with the University location. This is for the energetic people. We have an excellent gymnasium at the USQ Clive Berghofer Recreation Centre situated on campus.
Passes are available from the Registration Desk.
Weather Toowoomba s weather is quite often unpredictable. The field tour will give delegates the opportunity to see at first hand elite germplasm under evaluation for yield and disease reaction. At a crown rot field site, inoculation techniques will be demonstrated and diverse sources of resistance will be seen. At a second location, large scale observation plots for tolerance to root lesion nematode will be demonstrated at a long-term site managed for high populations of the nematode. Delegates will also be shown a germplasm enhancement site containing advanced lines identified for high yield and protein.
