Impacts of feral horses in Kosciuszko National Park - Threatened native species and pugging and draining of wetlands
Read how this NSW farmer switched from conventional farming methods to more holistic regenerative management.
What were the steps taken to reduce degradation and achieve a more complex native pasture, increased biodiversity and improve profits?

HOT OFF THE PRESS - EMR SPECIAL ISSUE ON 'OPTIMUM MANAGEMENT OF OVERABUNDANT MACROPODS!
This landmark edition is dedicated to improving the management of those kangaroo and wallaby (macropod) species that are prone to overpopulation throughout much of Australia, where their natural predators are controlled. The edition contains 25 papers contributed by landholders, public land managers and researchers specialising in the field. https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/toc/14428903/2021/22/S1

Catch up with this EMR short research report – just published. Serrated Tussock is a w**d in native grasslands. Control is complex and managers must choose between many techniques. We took judgements from control experts, and transformed them into a tool that informs mangers about the relative suitability of options for their situation. https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/full/10.1111/emr.12502?campaign=woletoc

Endemic Prickly Skinks may move into wood piles added to young rainforest restoration sites in Queensland’s Wet Tropics. Low-density natural wood rots quickly though so high-density salvaged posts are recommended for longer-term skink use. https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/full/10.1111/emr.12503?campaign=woletoc

Invertebrates moving seed around is an important ecological function. But are there ways that we can reduce the loss of high proportions of surface-sown seed when using direct seeding in revegetation. Read EMR paper https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/full/10.1111/emr.12516?campaign=woletoc

A recent study found that more native seedlings emerged at a directed seeded site when plots were hand-w**ded rather than sprayed early in the maintenance cycle - even though all plots were maintained by spraying in due course. This raises further interesting questions about how we best manage w**d at sites soon after seed sowing. https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/full/10.1111/emr.12507?campaign=woletoc

Camera traps are used to monitor success of feral cat control programs - but abundance, density and survival can only be estimated if the images are clear enough to detect features of individual animals. To optimise feature recognition this study suggests camera traps be set
Read about how this large trial evaluating climate-adjusted provenances of grey box and yellow box presented many initial challenges. Now successfully established, early results are promising. We expect that our experiences offer lessons for NRM agencies / groups running similar climate future plots.https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/full/10.1111/emr.12497?campaign=woletoc
