Ep.54 Understanding biosecurity - Jeanette Severs (Journalist, Writer, @Severs_Jeanette

Plants Grow Here - Horticulture, Landscape Gardening & Ecology

Jeanette Severs is a journalist and writer that I'm friends with on Twitter who's a bit of a trailblazer in the agricultural journalism space. In this episode, she explains why biosecurity is so important, how Australia is well situated for defence against pests and diseases, and some of the outbreaks that have given us a good scare in the past.
