The partner Governments will further consider the financing of native vegetation management, rehabilitation and land stewardship, and the commercialisation of short rotation tree crops, particularly for the wheat belt. During the 2014/15 reporting year, the North East, Goulburn Broken, Wimmera and Mallee CMAs within the Victorian Murray-Darling Basin undertook reforestation and revegetation works for dryland salinity management in their regions. Based on State funding alone, approximately 860 ha of revegetation was established within the Basin catchments during 2014/15. North East 211 is a summary of reforestation and revegetation management works undertaken in the North East CMA region during the 2014/15 reporting year, and target works for the 2015/16 reporting year.
