IMAGES OF LANDCARE

The first four photos are taken at the same site on the western Victorian property "Helm View" over 30 years. They include the first taken in the 1960's and then three taken 5 years apart from 1990 to 2001. They show the effects of classifying and farming land according to its capabilties - a major component of Landcare practice.

A new aerial photo of Helm View has been added, taken in 2005 which shows the extent of the plantings since the project commenced in 1985.
