Paddock Adoption Scheme

Paddock  Adoption SchemeUnder Calperum and Taylorville Stations' innovative Paddock Adoption Scheme the properties are divided into 'paddocks' - ranging from 6000 to 60,000 hectares.

The Trust supports them in these tasks by providing equipment, training and expert advice as required.
