Protecting flora and fauna on the farm

Protecting flora and fauna on the farm While everything that applies to environmental best practice and conservation in the garden is also relevant to the farming enterprise. As landowners and managers, there is much more that farmers can do to ensure the protection and enhancement of the environment and wildlife habitats in the countryside.

This section provides an overview and more detailed guidelines can be obtained by visiting the relevant web sites on our links page. Much of the information contained in this section has been sourced from the Farming and Wildlife Advisory Group and from the Department of Agriculture and Rural Development. Visit their web sites for more in-depth information.
