Revegetation

We are becoming increasingly creative with our revegetation techniques to combat the challenges of climate change.

Each year we collect, propagate and plant out 100s of tube stock and kilometres of direct seeding on the Raakajilm conservation property. To assist with revegetation, we have also trialed seed pelleting, water-absorbing polymers, slow-release watering devices, soil microbes, shading, brush piles, water jetting and deep-rooted tube stock.

Dark emu is in the sky, the emus have laid their eggs, but I’ve been looking at their poo.

Native Pine for revegetation

Now’s the time to sow seed of native Pine (Callitris gracilis) so the tubestock will be ready to plant out in Autumn.
