Native vegetation provides significant benefits for domestic livestock, native wildlife and ecosystem health... even on small farms. This project will fund smaller (<200ha) landholders in the Armidale, Guyra, Uralla and Walcha areas to plan and undertake revegetation projects that suit their individual needs, thanks to a partnership project with the Northern Tablelands Local Land Services.
Successful applicants:
- Revegetated using local provenance seed.
- Planted shelter belts or wind breaks with native trees and/or shrubs.
- Fenced to protect native vegetation.
- Connected remnant vegetation.
- Protected paddock trees and clump plantings.
- Planted scattered vegetation to form landscape linkages.
- Planted wildlife corridors and riparian buffers.
- Improved habitat for threatened species.
Successful applicants worked with our Agroforestry Peer Group Mentor program as part of the project.
This project was part of the $26.5 million of Catchment Action NSW investment that Local Land Services is delivering to enable better management of our water, soil, vegetation, biodiversity and cultural heritage.
