Management recommendations Purchase high quality remnants into reservation and encourage uptake of conservation agreements and covenants on private land. Remnants in travelling stock routes should be monitored carefully to ensure that remnants retain quality. Avoid activities that result in soil disturbance such as ploughing and earth works. Where possible, create buffers of native vegetation of 30 metres or more. Prevent trampling and excessive grazing pressure. Graze 3 days on; 28 days rest period. Totally exclude grazing during Spring and Summer flowering and seeding periods. Maintain a minimum sward height of 10 cm at all times (across all the site). Avoid fertiliser and herbicide application in or near remnants. Where cropping is undertaken in adjacent paddocks, minimise spray drift into remnants. Consult your local NRM Organisation for advice on appropriate revegetation methods. Rehabilitate sites with locally sourced seed. Monitor closely to ensure that weed species do not compete with young native recruits for soil moisture and light. Revegetate between existing remnants to reconnect, extend and buffer sites. Avoid disturbance during peak flowering season (no mowing, slashing or burning). Maintain native perennial cover. Implement hygiene measures to prevent weed spread, including by grazing and machinery use. Avoid adverse impacts from chemicals or other mechanisms to manage weeds. Control foxes and cats through baiting. Ensure grass dependent species are not affected by feral animal trapping and removal programs.
