The State NRM plan highlights the need for us to protect and manage
natural resources while at the same time supporting industries and a
healthy environment.
Helping to build sustainable communities is the cornerstone of
effective natural resources management, which relies on the involvement
of the entire community.
The State NRM Plan has a Guiding Target to “maintain the productive
capacity of our natural resources”. The success of our agriculture,
fisheries and forest industries depend upon the land, water and sea
resources. Our natural resource management programs are a major
underpinning of the productivity of those industries.
