What We Do
What We Do
At Pastures To Prosperity, we bridge the gap between agronomy science and profitable beef production. Every recommendation is grounded in real paddock experience, research-backed principles, and the practical realities of northern Australian grazing systems.
Get In Touch
Real Agronomy. Real Numbers. Real Results.
Whether you’re restoring rundown Buffel country, addressing Giant Rat’s Tail, Indian Couch, or Love Grass encroachment, or building feed reliability through legume systems and temperate forage integration, our focus is simple: lift productivity, strengthen resilience, and increase return per hectare.
We deliver measurable outcomes by combining tropical and temperate pasture systems, modern nutrient strategies, and clear financial modelling — giving producers confidence to act and clarity on what each decision means for animal performance and business profitability.
Key Focus
Industry Leadership & Professional Programs
Pasture Development & Legume Integration
Funded by Meat & Livestock Australia and delivered by the Queensland Department of Primary Industries, this project focuses on improving land condition, rebuilding pasture productivity, and future-proofing northern systems. Ross contributes his practical and scientific expertise to guide research and extension priorities.
Giant Rat’s Tail, Indian Couch & Love Grass Management
Strategic, science-informed control programs that combine pasture agronomy, grazing management, and targeted intervention.
Feed-Gap & Temperate Forage Integration
Building reliable feed supply through winter forages, temperate species, and structured rotation systems that reduce seasonal vulnerability.
Strategies for Managing Pasture Dieback
Diagnostic support, system redesign, and species selection to rebuild productivity in affected paddocks.
Crop & Forage Systems for Silage & Hay Production
Establishing high-performance forage systems to underpin backgrounding, finishing, and drought-proofing strategies.
Economic & Nutrient Budget Modelling
Clear numbers, nutrient budgets, and return-on-investment pathways tailored to the property, soil, rainfall and enterprise goals.
Mentoring & Professional Development
Supporting emerging agronomists and consultants through structured training, applied field learning, and industry guidance.
Speaking Engagements & Producer Workshops
Practical, engaging workshops grounded in paddock-ready science — delivered for NRM groups, producer networks, and industry bodies.
