We've joined forces with the Southern Rangelands Pastoral Alliance to tell the stories of pastoralists in the region who are innovating to build resilience against drought and other challenges. The WA Southern Rangelands encompass all of the land area south of the Pilbara, excluding the Agricultural Zone of the South West Land Division.
In part two, we chat to pastoralists about the different ways they're regenerating their land. First, we met Toby Nichols at Edah Station, doctor turned pastoralist. Toby and his brother Angus have been completely destocked the last three years as they work to revive the pastures on their historic property.
Our next chat was with Don Maasdorp at Pindabunna Station. Don and his family have spent many hours on a grader looking to slow down the natural flow of water across their property, allowing it to spread further across their landscape. The results are already speaking for themselves!
And finally, we met Jorgen Jensen at Yoweragabbie Station, who has similarly been working on controlling the flow of water across his property, only in a slightly different way. Jorgen shares how he believes that his investment of time and resources now will have a massive impact on the long term viability of the station, and therefore, the community.
This series is brought to you by the Southern Rangelands Pastoral Alliance, in conjunction with the #FutureDroughtFund and the Foundation for Rural and Regional Renewal.
