This 54 hectare property 9 kilometres west of Myponga will be planted to 22.7 hectares of local provenance vegetation using predominantly direct seeding during the 2009 and 2010 seasons.
The very steep nature of some of the land requires a combination of machine and hand direct seeding, and some tubestock seedlings.
