Recordings of the great presentations at our Biosecurity Symposium are now available to view on our YouTube channel here.

The most viewed since we put them up late last week are Danny Le Feuvre’s reflections from the Australian Varroa Mite response, and the governance panel discussion about the kiwifruit industry’s journey in biosecurity; what biosecurity means to them and the organisations they represent; and how they support the theme of the Symposium – ensuring we continuously build resilience.

The panel said it is critical that we all (as individuals, organisations, and within our growing communities) protect grower and business returns by taking responsibility for understanding biosecurity risks and have plans and processes ready and in place as routine practice, before a new threat arrives.

Ensuring we keep up with basic biosecurity practices and don’t become complacent in this space is something we’ll be discussing further in future Bulletins with examples of real life personal and community impacts of biosecurity incursions.
