As a research scientist focussing on insect pest management in forests, Frederick Neumann investigated eucalypt seed physiology, softwood genetics, and the ecology of insect pests in native eucalypt forests and pine plantations. This latter work included the successful control of chronic plague numbers of stick insect defoliators in high-productivity Eucalyptus delegatensis (Alpine Ash) and Eucalyptus regnans (Mountain Ash) forests in Victoria. His research also elucidated the effects of bushfires and prescribed fires on the populations and activity of soil/litter-frequenting invertebrates in eucalypt forests. Frederick Neumann's qualifications include: Diploma of Forestry, Victorian School of Forestry Creswick; Bachelor and Master of Science degrees from University of New South Wales; Doctor of Forest Science, University of Melbourne.
