About the account.
The Ivanhoe Timber Retention Project is a 5 year, $693k collaboration between the Queensland Government and GreenCollar. The Project aims to deliver environmental outcomes including improved water quality run-off, and extent and condition of threatened species habitat whilst diversifying on farm income and extending socio-economic benefits to the community, through change in property management practices.
The property covers prime agricultural country in the South Burnett Region of Queensland. With above average rainfall, the landscape lends itself to diverse agricultural, silviculture and horticulture productivity.
Management activities will focus on protection of vegetation that has a history of broadscale clearing, enabling fragmented and isolated patches of vegetation to re-establish and create linkages over time.
