It is now widely recognised that an understanding of traditional Indigenous land management practices will provide insights into our current appreciation of landscape function and biodiversity, and lead to improved biodiversity and farming outcomes.
This book provides case studies where different traditional practices were trialed on a small-scale basis on the properties of 12 interested landolders’, in the Monaro region on NSW.
It is hoped that by embracing the knowledge and practices of Indigenous land management, including that outlined in this document, will lead to a better understanding of and respect for Indigenous values, will hasten the realisation that both Aboriginal and non-Aboriginal people belong to Country, and in turn may help to hasten the process of reconciliation.
Special note: Prior to implementing any management actions that are set out in this booklet, please check with your Rural Fire Service and Local Land Services to ensure that actions are properly and safely implemented, and do not contravene any legislation.
