The Australian Master TreeGrower Program
The Australian Master TreeGrower Program (MTG) is a comprehensive educational package that gives farmers the knowledge to add trees as a commercial crop to their farming operation.
 
The program is an 8-day, field based, course for landholders interested in planting and managing trees for conservation and profit. The course was designed by Rowan Reid in 1996 when he was an academic at The University of Melbourne. Since then there have been 85 courses involving more than 1800 landholders across Australia.
