Funding opportunities are available through the Adaptive Farms for Sustainable Landscapes Program.

Riverina Local Land Services has launched its 2022/2023 landholder support program, Adaptive Farms for Sustainable Landscapes, with the main goals of improving agricultural productivity and better management of our natural resources. 

This year, the program will provide services to improve landholders’ skills and knowledge, as well as on ground incentives. Landholders are invited to apply for funding across a variety of projects including: 

• Farm planning 

• Enhancing farm dams and landscape rehydration for biodiversity 

• Establishing shelter belts of native vegetation 

• Establishing and protecting paddock trees 

• Constructing stock management areas to improve drought resilience 

• Protecting and enhancing endangered Box Gum Grassy Woodlands 

• Improving landholder knowledge and skills 

• Landholder ‘champions’ to demonstrate best practice in the above activities. 

Once you have selected which option/s are of interest, we will contact you to provide details on how to access the online learning and discuss your program.
