In 2020, after years of severe drought and heavily impacted productivity at Buckleboo Station, Paroo Pastoral commissioned the design of a detailed five-year Ecologically Sustainable Rangelands Management (ESRM) Environment Plan.The ESRM Environment Plan focusses on rangeland restoration through regenerative grazing practices, increased efficiency in livestock production and drought resilience. In this presentation, James Kerr outlines the Buckleboo Station plan and how the ESRM process improves profitability of rangeland businesses, nature conservation and livestock production systems to develop an ecologically sustainable and profitable pastoral community. It will also explore the ESRM project tool, following the principles of regenerative grazing to maximise the ecological rebuilding of biodiversity, water and nutrient cycling and energy efficiency within local ecosystems.Presenter: James Kerr.Powerpoint slides: Building drought resilience in a low rainfall environment.#NationalLandcareConference#LandcareConf22#FarmingAgricultureLandManagement
