The recent detection of Citrus canker on a citrus orchard in the Emerald area has created a significant amount of upheaval throughout the nursery and citrus industries over the past month and a half. NGIQ has dedicated considerable time, effort and money into representing industry at various forums (state & national) as well as endeavouring to keep the Queensland nursery industry informed. The general outcomes for our industry have been worth the effort however the timeline these results were delivered in is somewhat questionable.
