Carbon Neutral revegetated 12 hectares of this 41 ha property in the Tailem Bend area in June 2008.
The revegetation was undertaken using local indigenous species with direct seeding machinery. Once established, the species association will reflect the typical Eucalyptus porosa open mallee woodland of the area.
The Tailem Bend site consists of grey loam over limestone, with several low lying saline areas which will be rehabilitated with salt tolerant local species.
