Organic weed control
weed Clearing Machines
We offer an alternative to the traditional methods of machinery and herbicides, by using Goats which will suit many weed infested locations in North Queensland.
It is an organic solution that requires no fuel – apart from that used to transport them to site – and generates only biodegradable waste, the nutrients are cycled, improving the soil with nitrogen rich manure.
Goats eat a huge variety of weeds, aided by their evolved livers that cope with the tannins in foraged foods and their prehensile lips, enabling them to negotiate their way around thorns and prickles
Goats work well at removing weeds in habitat restoration and revegetation areas, then as weeds re-shoot and re-foliate the goats will continue to defoliate those weeds, effectively starving the plant and killing it.
Goats provide an efficient, environmentally friendly, chemical-free vegetation management solution that is gentle on the landscape, eliminating invasive plants, weeds, and fire hazards using no herbicides or heavy machinery, allowing the return of grasses and native vegetation.
Goats are light, agile movers, which damage land less than heavy equipment, preferentially grazing the weed, placing it at a disadvantage. This prevents the weed from flowering and dispersing seed, ringbarking or structurally weakening some species.
