Book Synopsis Tocal’s Practical Advantage by : David Brouwer
Download or read book Tocal’s Practical Advantage written by David Brouwer and published by NSW Agriculture. This book was released on 2015-07-17 with total page 126 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book traces the history of Tocal College, and explores the reasons why Tocal has thrived since it was established 50 years ago, while many other agricultural training institutions have declined. In the early years, Tocal was in many ways a smaller brother. But to survive, Tocal had to adapt. This required flexibility, a willingness to innovate, a pioneering spirit, the support of stakeholders and above all, political savvy. It is a credit to the leadership of its Principals over the past 50 years that Tocal has not only adapted, but seized the initiative. It has transformed from a regional, residential-based institution to an industry-based, national training hub. It is embedded as an indispensible part of NSW Department of Primary Industries; a significant state asset with a strong national profile. It provides flexible and customised training in regional areas throughout the State, with diverse projects across all agricultural industries. Tocal has become the service arm and major vehicle by which information and training is delivered to rural NSW. Tocal has always emphasised its practical base. It specialises in training for rural skills; its publications in all their forms are practical and expressed in plain English; its trainers have wide industry credibility. It has been true to its roots, but always alive to greater possibilities and wider horizons. This book is a glimpse into the journey so far.
Book Synopsis The Tocal land and its people before and after 1822 by : David Brouwer
Download or read book The Tocal land and its people before and after 1822 written by David Brouwer and published by CB Alexander Foundation. This book was released on 2023-03-02 with total page 81 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In 1822 a young James Webber, recently arrived in the Colony, took up his land grant on the Paterson River. In that one act of possession, the landscape, managed and maintained by Aboriginal people for many centuries, was changed forever. James and his convict crew carved out a European-style agricultural enterprise by exploiting the rich diversity of the land. In a nod to the earlier custodians, he named his estate ‘Tocal’, an aboriginal word for ‘plenty’. Through toil and enterprise, successive owners grew rich on the Tocal lands, until, in 1965, private ownership ceased, and a new agricultural college was born on the site. That college, now retaining the name given to the land by its original custodians, grew into a thriving educational centre, with tentacles of training reaching throughout the nation. 2022 marks a significant milestone in the history of the land. This brief overview of its story—including the millennia before dispossession—has been compiled by four authors with over 170 years of combined memories associated with Tocal College and recording its agriculture and its history. Over its history, Tocal has touched many families and many lives, and it continues to expand its reach, including to the descendants of its original peoples who cared for and respected its resources. This book in a small way pays homage to all of those lives.
Book Synopsis Tocal Code of Land Use Practice by : Cameron Archer
Download or read book Tocal Code of Land Use Practice written by Cameron Archer and published by NSW Agriculture. This book was released on 2016-06-25 with total page 48 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The magnificent Tocal property in the Hunter Valley of New South Wales stands as a testament to Australian agriculture and Australian farmers. It is now the site of Tocal Agricultural College. This book attempts to record a philosophy or approach to land use that leads to sustainability. The term ‘sustainability’ has become popular and over-used in recent years. It means different things to different people. One definition is ‘getting the best production from the land without limiting chances for future generations to do the same’. Tocal aims to be a role model for rural industry. From its foundation, the College has been aware of the need to manage the land for long-term sustainability. The first property plan was drawn up in 1965, showing land capabilities, new fences, and structures to control erosion. The plan has been completely revised twice and is constantly evolving. New knowledge and experience is always changing our thinking. So we will always seek to implement best management practices for agricultural land use. This book was written to support the Property Management Plan for Tocal. It is also intended for planning workshops, educational courses and for visitors to Tocal. This Code sets out the strategies and objectives used at Tocal to move towards sustainable agriculture.

Book Synopsis Honey and pollen flora of South-Eastern Australia by : Dr. Douglas Somerville
Download or read book Honey and pollen flora of South-Eastern Australia written by Dr. Douglas Somerville and published by NSW Agriculture. This book was released on 2020-01-14 with total page 676 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This PDF book is best viewed on a desktop or tablet. Understanding the biology of flora and its value to honey bees is the core foundation for successful beekeeping. Bees feed on nectar and pollen. No food equals no bees! The flowers on which bees forage have a major impact on stocking rates and the level of nutrition available to the colony, two subjects that need to be understood for a beekeeper to be successful. Whether a beekeeper owns one hive or a thousand, the principle is the same. Floral resources within Australia underpin so many systems and animal species. Building knowledge and understanding of what they are, and how they are adapting to a changing climate, is a critical field of scientific endeavour. This publication is part of the journey to focus on the value of plants to nectarivores and honey bees in particular. The result of over 30 years of research, it distils both scientific knowledge and the opinions of hundreds of beekeepers into a reference work that will be the cornerstone of floral understanding in apiculture for years to come. Contents Acknowledgements Preface What makes an ideal apiary site? Hive stocking rate Honey bee nutrition Star rating A note on flowering charts What’s in a name?
