Identify indicators of sustainable land use practice, develop guidelines and increase uptake of farming practices that minimise impact on or improve condition of agricultural landscapes. Guidelines have been developed through research and collation of world’s best practice sustainable land use / sustainable agriculture. The draft guidelines framework and content has been formulated through consultation with stakeholders and is presently being trialled with growers in the Top End, Katherine and Arid Zone regions.
