Upper Gilliat Group - Prickly Acacia Eradication in Gilliat River Sub-catchment

This project will continue the Upper Gilliat Prickly Acacia control project on Cairo, Rutchillo, Redland Park, Eulolo, Willcamp, Penola Downs, Kooroora, Glen Bede, Malvie Downs, Kelloshiel and Wolseley Downs Stations and involves the ongoing treatment of Prickly Acacia growing along waterways within the Upper Gilliat sub-catchment (a tributary of the Flinders River) and scattered Prickly Acacia in paddocks across the properties. This project will enable the Upper Gilliat Group to better control the spread of Prickly Acacia over 2,500 ha and finally reduce its impact in order to rebuild species and ecosystem resilience in the Mitchell Grass Downs bioregion of northwest Queensland.
