Presentation to be held on tree disease

Sat, 29 Oct 2011

A presentation is being held on a disease which has led to thousands of trees needing to be felled on the Island.

It was announced that Phytophthora Ramorum had been found on the Island earlier this month.

As a result, some roads leading to the Island's plantations have been closed until further notice.

The Department of Environment, Food and Agriculture is hosting a public presentation at the Glen Helen Hotel on Thursday November 10th.
