Funding for Graziers

Water quality improvement grants

Applications are now open. Maximise your productivity with our water quality improvement grants. We can help you with funding to carry out gully and river fencing, fencing to land types and erosion control which not only improve your property but also benefit your wider community. Improving ground cover and keeping your soil on your property means your place will be more resilient during the dry season.

Funding is available for practices that reduce nutrients, sediments and pesticides leaving farms.

We can help you:

  • Improve soil health – through gully and stream bank erosion controlworks
  • Reduce property run-off – through regeneration projects
  • Improve water quality – through riparian fencing and spreading of waters to exclude stock from creeks and rivers
  • Increase groundcover – through fencing to land type to reduce grazing pressure on degraded country
