Adaptive Management of Ecologically Sustainable Development in the Douglas-Daly Region: The Adaptive Management Plan

Northern Territory Cattlemen's Association
GHD, NTCA and the Department of Agriculture, Fisheries, and Forestry
The plan provides a “blueprint” for the conduct of adaptive management in the Douglas-Daly. It documents the area of land and issues over which it has application. It identifies the stakeholders and the procedures they use in conducting management of the plan, in determining their priorities, in establishing adaptive management programmes and in disseminating improved management procedures.
The plan relates to: that area of land defined by the ADMA Farms Area, the Stray Creek blocks, the Tipperary Group of Stations and Jindare Station in the Douglas-Daly Region (Fig. 1); the support industries, residents and school of this part of the Daly River catchment; and the ecological, social and economic relationships between that land and the remainder of the Daly Basin, and the people who live on and/or have a material interest in ensuring the ecologically sustainable development of that land. The adaptive management plan is developed and implemented through consensus among stakeholders. The stakeholders are members of the Douglas Daly Community Development Association Inc.
