Varroa Development Officers

Extension and engagement is being delivered nationally in direct support of beekeepers as they transition to managing Varroa mite.

VDOs build capability through hands on engagement with beekeepers both commercial and recreational to extend best management practice guidelines, sharing knowledge and expertise directly to beekeepers in the field and within club and association branches. 

Preparing beekeepers is instrumental in reducing Varroa mite impacts for industry into the future.
