Rob and Daniel are fourth-generation farmers who grew up working on the farm since they were old enough to give their dad Vern a hand.

Theo Michael and his family are directors of the Nguna Morrt Aboriginal Corporation, set up to manage Nguna Morrt farm, a small property near Mawson.

Gary and Janet Repacholi have been planting between 4,000 and 6,000 trees a year since the mid-1990s and saltbush since 2000.

Doug Pease runs a mixed farming enterprise in Wyalkatchem and recently has been interested in growing summer active pastures and improving the pasture phase in his rotation by sowing annuals.

Since 1994, Ian and Dianne Haggerty have been implementing a holistic and integrated program of broadacre, dryland cropping of cereal grains; cereal hay crops; and grazing with specially bred sheep for wool and premium grade fat lambs.

Casuarina obesa (Swamp sheoak) is generally promoted as a Landcare option on saline farmland that also has potential as a commercial tree crop across the Avon region.

Clearing of the original farming land began in the Yilgarn in the 1920s and continued into the 1960-70s when the higher, lighter land was cleared.

Approximately ten years ago the Indigenous Land Corporation divested Coobabla Farm in Bakers Hill to the Woolah-Wah Land Aboriginal Corporation and the Hayward family.

The Bodallin Catchment Group is an innovative, community-driven grower group that was formed due to farmers in the area wanting to come together to discuss localised agricultural issues and test practices with on-farm trials.

This project’s aim was to determine the viability of using saltbush revegetation to sequester carbon and provide data to make a case for the development of a methodology under the Carbon Credits (Carbon Farming Initiative) Act 2011 (CFI Act).

Wheatbelt NRM has developed this Regional NRM Strategy to guide future understanding and priorities for the management of the natural resources of the Avon River Basin.

A guide for landowners to make use of marginally productive land by planting and utilizing forage shrubs for livestock and soil health and/or to plant Sandalwood plantations to diversify income over the long term.

This guide is for land managers, farmers and communities interested in agroforestry-based revegetation options that provide both natural resource and production-based outcomes for the Wheatbelt region of Western Australia.

Plant taxonomy, the study and process of naming and classification, is often a mystery to the uninitiated.

An easy-to-use reference in the preparation, trapping and identification of dung beetles on your property.

This guide has been developed to present some of the approaches Wheatbelt farmers are taking to address soil health issues in the region.

This report reviews the current literature to provide a summary of the biodiversity benefits of agroforestry systems that could be utilised in the Western Australian Wheatbelt.

This report documents a snapshot study of the biodiversity outcomes at 30 production and nonproduction based revegetation sites in the Wheatbelt region of Western Australia.

This report has presented the current knowledge about biodiversity values in the Avon Wheatbelt and aspects of their conservation with respect to fire management. A basic structure and process has been recommended for implementing and monitoring fire management for biodiversity conservation as a priority. This is based on using Beard-Hopkins vegetation associations as the basic fire planning unit and developing a GIS spatial database to identify areas available for burning. Fire management for biodiversity conservation needs to be considered in association with priorities for community protection as detailed in the associated Wildfire Threat Analysis report.

Kaya (hello)! Noongar katadjin (knowledge) of boodjar (country) is a precious thing and a privilege to learn. This storybook offers a glimpse of the rich katadjin surrounding Boyagin Rock. This katadjin is passed on to new generations of Noongars (the Aboriginal people of south-west Australia), both in rural and metro areas, whose moort (family) connections to Boyagin are strong.
