Summary

This project will provide all land managers and producers the ongoing support for the cutting edge innovation needed to manage their land and production areas. This will provide continuity to the agricultural community, furthering family connections to farming land and sea country. We hope to build upon the extensive networks already established within Cape York Peninsula. The skills, confidence, partnerships, knowledge, enthusiasm and governance experience gained will have broad, far reaching social outcomes for everyone in our community. This will get more people engaged in looking after country with the latest Innovative Technology. The benefits of sharing knowledge will contribute to generating further income and greatly adding to community health and well being. We work amongst, and have a focus on the Community and the Indigenous Advancement Strategy as a whole. This will enable the financial capability to continue land management activities, to further develop skills and have the capacity to train, educate and provide employment opportunities for all involved, including the next generation. All resources and services used in the project, e.g. machine maintenance, vehicle tyres and fuel will be spent in all communities such as Hopevale, Wujal
