The Game and Wildlife Conservation Trust is hosting two informative events in March, featuring talks on a range of topics directly affecting game management today.
A new one-day conference that will update and inform game management professionals on some pressing issues surrounding game shooting is being hosted by the Game & Wildlife Conservation Trust (GWCT).
This event, designed for game managers and known as Game 2018, will be held on Thursday 1 March 2018 at GWCT’s headquarters in Fordingbridge, Hampshire.
Invasive weeds and the contamination of cover crops, antibiotic use in game rearing, the latest trapping legislation, recent research on woodcock populations and migration are some of the topics for game managers to discuss at the conference.
