The uptake of sustainable agricultural practice in the region can enhance the long-term viability of farm enterprises, supporting regional communities, and in many cases can have positive outcomes for waterways and catchments.

  • Preventing erosion | Through improved ground cover, pasture and grazing management.
  • Minimising soil & nutrient loss | Implementing cost-effective erosion control measures to minimise soil and nutrient loss.
  • Improving soil health | Managing organic matter, tillage and cropping practices.
  • Preventing compaction & damage | Riparian zone fencing and off-stream watering.

A range of programs assist grazing and horticultural landholders in the region to adopt sustainable agricultural practices.

Here's a snapshot of just some of the action over the past 5 years. These numbers will grow as more groups from across the region contribute their data.

*Numbers as provided by contributors to the stewardship pilot (for the period 2019/20 - 2023/24). These numbers will increase as more groups from across the region submit data to the stewardship initiative as the project grows in the coming years.
