This project will demonstrate that relatively low-cost interventions and changes in grazing practices can rehydrate grazing landscapes, improve soil, water, and biodiversity assets, and remediate existing erosion.
Five demonstration properties will participate in the design, implementation, and evaluation of on ground works and grazing practices with recognized industry experts. These properties will be monitored, case studies developed, and field days/education events held to share the outcomes and benefits across a wider network of graziers.
This Activity is funded through the Future Drought Fund (FDF) Drought Resilient Soils and landscapes (DRSL) Grants Program.

We acknowledge the Australian Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples as the first inhabitants of this country and pay our respects to the Traditional Owners and Elders, past and present, of the land on which we stand today, the Djabugay (pronounced Jap-ur-kai), Yirrganydji (pronounced Irri-kan-dji) and the Gimuy Yidinji (pronounced Goom-eye Yidinji) people (and all other country/people joining us today).
In the spirit of reconciliation, we also acknowledge the valuable contribution that Australian Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples continue to make to James Cook University and the broader community.
