Implementation of our restoration and climate resilience recommendations ( the 70% local provenance: 30% climate analogue sourcing of seed or plants) has slipped since a focus on provenance in the mid 2000’s and is increasingly constrained by seed supply. We also have recognized that we have a lot of revegetation that doesn’t achieve “whole ecosystem” restoration, especially in grassy ecosystems. As larger scale carbon and biodiversity plantings are implemented as part of market-driven activity, how can we improve the outcomes. How do we address threatened species? How do we address this issue with seed supply?
This forum is for practitioners, researchers, policymakers and all community interested in the future of seed collection and supply in our region – the Murray and Riverina NSW.
