What is AgForward
AgForward, an initiative of
AgForce Queensland, was initially
established with funding from the Queensland Government to help
primary producers and landholders interpret the
Vegetation
Management Act 1999.
Since commencing in May 2005, AgForward has successfully
assisted many producers and landholders with vegetation
management and grown to meet the needs of producers in the areas
of GPS and Computer Mapping technologies, through structured,
nationally accredited workshops.
AgForests, a joint initiative between
AgForce Queensland and
Timber Queensland, was added to AgForward’s portfolio in 2007.
AgForward’s training performance was recognised when it took out
the prestigious “Education Project” Award at the 2007 Red Meat
