Land Overview
Focus on protecting and enhancing land assets—including soils, vegetation, and cultural heritage—by partnering with land managers to build resilience and support sustainable landscapes and industries in a changing environment.
Protecting and Strengthening Land Assets for a Resilient Future
Land assets include the land’s shape and the soils that support farming, forestry, and natural environments, as well as the vegetation that protects these soils and cultural heritage values. Cradle Coast NRM works to protect the natural, productive, and cultural aspects of these assets and aims to strengthen their resilience to withstand current and future challenges.
The Land Theme focuses on three key areas: Healthy Country, Resilient Landscapes, and Soil and Vegetation. Within these areas, NRM organisations collaborate with land managers to promote sustainable natural and productive landscapes and industries, especially in a changing environment.
Maintaining healthy landscapes, soils, and vegetation is crucial for all ecosystems—whether they are rural or urban, water-based or land-based, domestic or wild. This shows that all Themes are closely connected, particularly in supporting essential ecosystem services.
