TSIG is proud to be hosting the 12th International Herbage Seed Group (IHSG) Conference in Launceston, Tasmania, in November 2025.
Hear from top researchers in the field of grass seed research and production and visit Tasmanian farms and seed production facilities.
The conference is a chance to share and present the research work carried out on forage crops and turf for seed production, as the problems encountered in seed production are common to the various producing countries.
Past conference topics have included plant protection (insects, weeds, diseases), agronomy (crop establishment techniques, fertilisation, harvesting etc.), variety creation, quality of harvested seeds and associated technologies.
The IHSG was created to encourage cooperation and communication between international scientists involved in the production of forage grass (ryegrass, fescue, bromegrass etc.) and turf seed, and forage legume seed (mainly clover and lucerne/alfalfa).
Come and meet old and new friends of IHSG, and stay for the post-conference tour, to be hosted in conjunction with Lucerne Australia.
