c2c Biofund Project

  

This project offers Landholders the opportunity to receive funding assistance for remnant protection and enhancement along with addressing a range Land management issues including water way protection, erosion control and landslip stabalisation. The HDLN will select projects for this funding from submissions received through the annual Expressions of Interest Process. Funding may be used to purchase indigenous seedlings and to assist landholder fencing costs associated with protecting revegetation sites and remnant vegetation. 

  

Funding for this project is received through the c2c Alliance and is designed to complement government funding that HDLN receives to undertake natural resource management works throughout the region.

Dung Beetle Surveys

This season has been different from those of past years, what has this meant for your dung beetles? 

In 2008-2009, the Dairy Action Program provided 67 dung beetle colonies to landholders for release across the district. 

Click here to see a map showing what species were released where.

Now we'd like to hear from you how they're faring...

So kick over some cow pats and give us a call to let us know what you find, or even bring in a sample for id.
