Assessment of
the potential for grazing leucaena dominant regeneration areas at Comalco,
Weipa
To convert weedy leucaena thickets into productive pastures on areas of
land rehabilitated after bauxite mining, trials testing rotational versus
continuous grazing strategies and a range of stocking rates are being
assessed. Animal performance (liveweight gain) and pasture composition are
being monitored to determine whether beef cattle can be used to effectively
control weedy leucaena, increase the productivity of the land, and improve
rehabilitation outcomes.
