In a major push to combat climate change and bolster biodiversity, the state Government’s Native Vegetation Heritage Agreements grants program has allocated over $1.3 million to 68 projects across South Australia.
Property owners can access grants ranging from $1,000 to $100,000, supporting activities like habitat improvement, weed control, and grazing management.
Landholders keen on joining can submit an Expression of Interest, initiating an evaluation of their property’s suitability for participation.
Secret Rocks in the Arid Lands region used over $97,000 to electrify a 4000-hectare predator proof fence and conduct ecological burns to improve habitats for nine significant species.
