Biodiversity and Fire Management

Protection of life and property is the overriding priority in fire management, particularly as urban areas expand and rural residential developments bring more people into fire-prone areas. Some developments that take advantage of the scenic values of steep wooded land are in high-risk areas. So how do you manage your farm, grassland or bushland in both an environmentally friendly and bushfire-safe fashion?
