Eucalypts for Floriculture - a Growers’ Guide

Edited by Christine Horsman and Dr Kate Delaporte
In conjunction with the University of Adelaide

RIRDC Project No. UA-60A  Publication No. 02/132

Summary and order form

This newly published manual was produced in response to industry requests for information about growing eucalypts for floriculture. It describes the findings of an industry workshop, attended by nearly 40 industry stakeholders, in June 2002. The guide also incorporates other material available from grower organisations.

While it must be emphasised that there is still much to be learnt about all aspects of production, this guide details current knowledge about methods for the sustainable production of eucalypts, across a range of climatic regions and soil types.

The guide is presented in a ring-binder format, which can be easily updated. Information is written in a non-technical fashion, to ensure that it is available to all those who are interested in growing eucalypts as a commercial crop.

Topics covered include:
 

• Before you begin
• Choosing what to grow
• Production
• Picking and postharvest handling
• Marketing
• Research opportunities
• Further information (literature and websites)


The manuals cost $44 each which includes GST, postage and packing
