Salinity Site Assessments

/by

A partnership project with Mid Macquarie Landcare, Little River Landcare, Three Rivers Landcare, Watershed Landcare and Central Tablelands Landcare scope out the extent and severity of salinity across the central west and tablelands.

After 3 consecutive wet years, the Salinity issue has once again raised it’s ugly head.

Did you know that the Little River Landcare catchment is the second saltiest in NSW? Salinity sites are popping up across this area and established sites are expanding rapidly. However, there are management decisions that can restabilise these areas and in some cases capitalise grazing production when strategically managed.

If you have a bare patch/ wet area of concern on your property, we can visit your farm, assess the site, and make management recommendations.

Recommendations consider the past & current management of the site, in conjunction with its geological landscape and physical soil/water tests taken on site.

Do you have a wet patch / bare area or spot of delayed plant growth you’re concerned about on your property? Book in a site inspection by contacting Phoebe at Little River Landcare.
