Urabrible Landcare Group has collectively done individual farm plans, which compliment the CW CMA catchment plans. Most members have participated in a Pilot of Property Management Planning organised by the Central West and Border Rivers/Gwydir CMA and presented by The Western Institute of TAFE in Aug – Dec 2004.

The combined goals of the Landcare Group are to protect and improve

• creek lines, the river and waterways
• remnant vegetation
• riparian areas
• wildlife habitats

Increase the biodiversity and income steams on our properties by

• improved land management
• improved agricultural practises
• drought proofing strategies

Since its implementation, the group has moved from concentrating on tree planting to becoming increasingly aware of the many other factors that affect the environment, the health of our land and therefore our income. We have accessed incentives offered by various Govt departments to help us achieve the above goals.
