01. Biodiversity & Carbon Credits

Biodiversity and carbon markets offer landholders new pathways to generate income while restoring native ecosystems and contributing to national environmental goals. Under the Nature Repair Act 2023, landholders can participate in a voluntary, legislated biodiversity market by undertaking eligible projects—such as replanting native forest and woodland ecosystems—to earn tradeable biodiversity certificates.  Projects under the Nature Repair Market can be tailored to different property sizes and offer long-term financial and conservation value. Similarly, Carbon Credits generated through environmental plantings  reward landholders for restoring vegetation that sequesters carbon while enhancing biodiversity.  These emerging opportunities are a long-term business decision that require sustained commitment, with returns dependent on project design, successful delivery of biodiversity outcomes, and the evolving demand within the biodiversity credit market.

02. Biodiversity Stewardship Agreement (BCA)

A Biodiversity Stewardship Agreement  enables landholders to generate and sell biodiversity credits by permanently protecting and actively managing high conservation value areas on their property. These credits can be sold to developers or other entities with offset obligations, creating a significant and ongoing income stream. The agreement also supports landholders in enhancing habitat quality through approved management actions such as weed control, fencing, and revegetation. While the agreement is legally binding and perpetual, landholders retain ownership and continue to use the land in ways compatible with biodiversity goals. This pathway offers both financial reward and the opportunity to play a leading role in conserving threatened species and ecosystems.

03. Voluntary Conservation Agreements (VCA)

Voluntary Conservation Agreements allow landholders to permanently protect areas of high ecological value on their property while receiving tailored financial and technical support. In return for managing land for conservation, landholders may be eligible to receive annual management payments, assistance with on-ground works, and access to grant programs to support activities such as weed control, fencing, and habitat restoration. These agreements are flexible and are negotiated to reflect the landholder’s goals.  They can enhance property value by safeguarding natural assets. They also offer the satisfaction of contributing to regional biodiversity goals and climate resilience, while ensuring long-term stewardship of important ecosystems

04. Primary Production

Agroforestry (or Farm Forestry) allows landholders to enhance biodiversity, improve land health, and create climate-resilient landscapes while generating long-term value. Thoughtfully integrated subtropical plantings can restore habitat, reduce erosion, and support productive land use. A key financial advantages of agroforestry is its eligibility for primary producer tax deductions, particularly when managing cabinet timber species as a commercial venture. These deductions can apply to establishment, maintenance, and operational costs, making agroforestry not only ecologically beneficial but also financially strategic. Additional support may be available through grants and incentive programs aimed at sustainable land management and biodiversity restoration.
