A project to improve the productivity of cattle breeder herds initiated in 2004 is producing interesting information in the Pilbara and Kimberley of WA. Objectives of this project include determining pastoralists attitude to adopting alternative management practices, documenting animal performance under current management systems and combining pastoralists experience and relevant R&D from other areas of northern Australia to develop, trial and demonstrate alternative best practise management systems for young breeders. A summary of the Pilbara project activities is presented.
