Roadshow Unveils New Tree Stock Standard

A new benchmark to assess the quality of Australian trees has been unveiled by Western Sydney University’s Hawkesbury Institute for the Environment (HIE) at a series of capital city workshops last month. The new standard, AS 2303:2018 Tree Stock for Landscape Use, follows two years of research funded by Hort Innovation using nursery industry levies and funds from the Australian Government. In this Nursery Paper, we revisit the research findings that led to a broader, more applicable tree standard, as well as the national roadshow, which brought together 450 growers and landscape professionals to learn about the updated criteria.
