Paddock Trees – Restoring the Missing Links

Across our rural landscape, paddock trees stand out as an iconic image, providing shade and shelter for livestock and maintaining the productive capacity of the land. Paddock trees also provide an immense benefit to biodiversity by providing food, shelter and nesting sites for a large number of birds, bats, insects and small mammals. In recognising the importance of paddock trees on farms, the Riverina Highlands Landcare Network has funding available to landholders to protect and restore paddock trees.
