Pearces Paddock at Bundaleer Reservoir - Eroded Hilltop Restoration Project

This project will significantly reduce soil erosion over a 4 hectare area of highly eroded land in Pearces Paddock near Bundaleer Reservoir. The area will be fenced to permanently exclude stock, be directly sown with native grasses and be planted with native shrub tubestock to reflect what was historically present. This will re-establish ground cover, reduce compaction, prevent further erosion, provide habitat for native fauna, assist native grass areas and seed banks to build again, and will complement restorative works completed on adjoining land.

本项目将显著降低邦达利尔水库（Bundaleer Reservoir）附近皮尔斯牧场（Pearces Paddock）内一片面积为4公顷的重度侵蚀土地的土壤侵蚀程度。该区域将通过围栏围合实现永久禁牧，同时直接播撒本土草本植物，并栽植原生灌木容器苗，以还原该区域历史原生植被风貌。此举将重新建立地表覆盖、缓解土壤板结、阻止进一步侵蚀，为本土野生动物提供栖息生境，助力本土草本群落与种子库的恢复重建，并与毗邻土地已完成的修复工程形成协同互补。
