Bushfire recovery support and resources now available for land managers affected by the Deep Creek and Nangkita fires.
Maintain Groundcover
Maintaining strong grassy groundcover in grazing areas is essential for protecting soil health and preventing seasonal degradation.
Aim for at least 70% cover to minimise runoff and erosion while keeping valuable nutrients and organic matter where they belong.
Well managed groundcover also improves water infiltration and supports healthier, more resilient pastures. By prioritising groundcover, land managers can strengthen long‑term productivity and safeguard the landscape for future seasons.
Time to test your soils
Soil testing is one of the most valuable tools for making confident, cost‑effective farm decisions.
Without testing your paddocks, it’s easy to over‑or under‑apply inputs, miss emerging issues, or invest time and money in practices that won’t deliver returns.
Regular soil tests reveal nutrient levels, pH, and constraints that aren’t visible from the surface, helping you target management where it’s needed most. By basing decisions on real data, producers can improve productivity and protect soil health. Learn more about soil testing here.
