About the account.

The Nioka Native Vegetation Project is on a 2,000 hectare organic beef farm in the Brigalow Belt. Nioka is situated within the Upper Dawson catchment and is characterised by open Eucalypt communities and semi-evergreen vine thicket.

This project is an $878,500, five-year partnership between the Queensland Government and Green Collar via the Land Restoration Fund. The project will protect 366 hectares of native vegetation and landholders will undertake sustainable management activities to improve condition and extent of vegetation. By retaining the vegetation, the project will reduce sediment flow into the Great Barrier Reef and provide potential habitat for threatened species including Glossy Black Cockatoos and Koalas.
