"Contact with researchers at Mystery Creek in 2002 made me realise we needed answers to some of the questions to do with managing clover and Clover Root Weevil in pasture. It was daunting at first to find myself convenor of the Waikato Clover Management Group. However the co-operation and enthusiasm from the NZ Landcare Trust, researchers, the ag-industry and farmers alike has been inspiring. We believe we can get the answers we need."
Lorraine Bilby – convenor of the Waikato Clover Management Group.
