Farmers and Landcare Part 2: Why Farmers Need Landcare
Farmers play a key role in looking after the land they work on, and their practices have a big impact on the health of the environment around them. The long-term future of agriculture depends on getting this balance right. That’s where organisations like Landcare come in — supporting farmers to farm sustainably, protect natural resources, and connect with others who are working toward the same goals.

Farmers and Landcare Part 1: Why Landcare Needs Farmers
Almost 60% of Australian land is under the management of farming businesses. It is hard to imagine that any meaningful landscape protection or improvement is possible without their participation. As a national movement, Landcare has a large network of volunteers and paid staff some of whom are farmers, graziers and land managers themselves, and they are crucial to the success of programs and on-ground implementation to manage natural capital.
50 Shades of Clay - Harden Ladies on the Land Explore Soil Health
The workshop name “50 Shades of Clay” was inspired by an idea from the Tamworth Landcare group. The one-day “Soil Health for Farm Wealth” course gave local farming women the opportunity to assess their soil health, identify which soil health “pillars” were missing in their cropped and grazing paddocks, and plan practical next steps for their farms. This course was organised by Julie Roberts (Local Landcare Co-ordinator for Murrumbidgee Hilltops area) and funded by Riverina LLS Agriwomen Connect Program under Climate Smart Agriculture Program.
