RESOURCE MANAGEMENT SURVEY DATA PACKAGE 1998-99

There are two Commonwealth government programs funded by the national heritage trust that work toward the goal of sustainable agriculture — the National Landcare Program and the Farm Forestry Program. The Landcare and Farm Forestry questions were included in a broader survey of resource management issues conducted in conjunction with ABARE’s national survey of broadacre and dairy industries. This page provides survey results for the ongoing evaluation of the two programs of the National Heritage Trust.
