middle wetland
Middle wetland is owned and managed by Rice Research Australia Pty Ltd, 20 km west of Jerilderie on the Billabong Creek. The landholders have demonstrated their commitment for environmental outcomes by securing conservation management agreements, and a 10-year Property Vegetation Plan Over Central Wetland through Murray LLS and MDWWG for carbon and biodiversity outcomes in 2017.
Working with the land managers and using the recently installed infrastructure, water can now be delivered to the Northern proportion of the wetland and held to achieve a more natural wetting and drying cycle. By restoring a more natural watering regime to Middle Wetland the environmental values of the billabong Creek floodplain and Yanco Creek will be enhanced.
