This is a general notice to alert Farmers to the dangers of the 'prickly poison' plant (pictured right) which has caused stock deaths in the last few weeks in the Shire.
The plant is most poisonous following any rainfall event which initiates new growth or flowering. Please keep a look out for any unusual plants growing in paddocks that are stocked.
If in doubt please get them identified if you are at all suspicious of the plant. The Landcare Office can assist with sourcing information and can be contacted on 98634225.
