Producer trials will be established to demonstrate practices that increase herd productivity, contribute to soil carbon sequestration, maintain productive native pasture ecosystems and increase water use efficiency.

Pastoralists, Indigenous groups and experts will come together to control Parkinsonia, a Weed of National Significance, in the Sylvester catchment. A catchment based approach will be used to tackle outlier infestations in the headwaters and manage core infestations. Activities will include aerial survey, workshops, applying best practice treatments and developing long-term agreements with pastoralists.
