‘A Green Future ‘  (DVD)

A Green Future was launched at the 2007 Queensland Landare Conference by the Morinish Landcare group and major sponsor Waratah/Onesteel. By using a series of factual case studies of grazing families throughout Queensland, A Green Future documents the exciting journey of people who have improved their natural resource base by utilising innovation, instinct, and Landcare principles.

This DVD is a great introduction to the development of sustainable grazing systems.
