Benefits
Professional advice
Land for Wildlife can offer you advice. Each landholder who applies for Land for Wildlife registration in a facilitated region will be visited - a great opportunity to obtain on-site advice.
Such advice includes:
- how to integrate wildlife habitat with other
uses of private land to the benefit of the landholder and wildlife,
through farm and catchment planning
- how to manage remnant bushland and the fauna occurring in the area
- the ecological role and requirements of native flora and fauna
- how to include wildlife aspects into revegetation schemes and landcare
- information about other forms of assistance and incentives that are available.
Networks and information exchange
Land for Wildlife
can offer you contact with like-minded landholders, and a chance to
share in their ideas and experiences through publications, field days
and other activities. Additional information is available in the form
of regular newsletters and more detailed publications. Land for Wildlife
fits in very well with various landcare activities. No matter what
activity is considered, whether it be protecting a wetland, creekline,
breakaway or granite outcrop, creating a shelter belt, rehabilitating
saltland or even alley farming, a little bit of thought at the planning
stage can create an area which wildlife can also use, giving multiple
benefits to the property and the wildlife.
The scheme can help you to create a “healthy ecosystem” on your property and move towards sustainable landuse.
