“Bylong Valley and Bungonia: two different geographical locations, two totally different starting conditions. Peter Andrews has implemented Natural Sequence Farming and proper water management, and I’ve seen the exactly same result in both locations in less than a year - the evolution of plants, the automatic transitioning from woody pioneering weeds to beautiful grass and clover.”

See also the case study 'The Jillamatong Story', by Soils for Life on the prime lamb, cattle, garlic, truffles and yabbies enterprise. Innovations included restoration of eroded areas and development of chain of ponds. Key results included vastly improved water quality through from chain of ponds, significant reduction in costs, 230% profit between 2005 and 2014.

Mr O'Bree said the water diversion had a number of impacts including better crop growth and environment benefits.
'We're not getting that run-off heading down and out into the Indian Ocean and murkying it up out there and damaging our sea beds and stuff like that,' he said."
