The project found 41 ways in which Northern Tablelands woolgrowers managing a wide range of farming operations, are enhancing biodiversity on wool properties and developing profitable, biodiverse wool production systems. This Fact Sheet outlines those management practices.

Importance of Arboreal Mammals and Improving habitat for Arboreal mammals

This Fact Sheet reports on the diversity of pasture types and pasture species on southern New England wool properties, and the relationships with soil type, grazing, fertiliser and cultivation.

Information for woolgrowers with weedy native pastures. Provides details of how to manage grassy weeds including a tool for grazing management.

The following report is a brief study and interpretation of the publicly known principles and theories of Open Hydroponics (OH). Scientific validation of the principles of OH, productivity gains from OH and in-field assessment of the practicality of OH was not a part of this study. Published information on OH was reviewed, however very little published information was available and therefore a considerable amount of information was also sourced from OH public presentations, OH seminars, personal field visits to OH orchards and communications with various OH consultants.

Over 15 years, the Tonkin family from Coomberdale have transformed their salt country along the Goonderoo River, near Moora.

During the Land, Water & Wool Northern Tablelands Project (NSW), three Case Study farms-'The Hill','Lana' and 'Nant Lodge'-were selected to demonstrate three quite different examples of profitable, biodiverse wool production. The ner managers of all three properties recognised the value of biodiversity to their commercial success However, the properties differed markedly in area, soil type, length of family ownership, intensity of development, grazing management and tree cover

The redesign, refurbishment and automation of irrigation systems and their management is being driven by the need to: *improve the water use efficiency of irrigation supply systems by reducing losses, so making more water available for additional irrigation or other uses, including the environment; *improve the operational efficiency of irrigation supply systems through the rationalisation and automation of distribution, drainage and storage infrastructure; and *optimise the standard of service to irrigators, which will enable them to improve water use efficiency on their properties and gear up to produce high-value crops.
