Incentive schemes

Across the basin, several community groups (known as sub-regional groups) work in partnership with FBA to provide information, resources and technical support to landholders, community groups and others working to improve land condition and water quality.

Financial and technical support is currently aimed at projects in priority neighbourhood catchments. To find out more about the Neighbourhood Catchments incentive scheme, or to see if you are in a priority neighbourhood catchment, contact your local sub-regional group or FBA.

For general information about Neighbourhood Catchments and the FBA Neighbourhood Catchments Incentive Scheme, see our fact sheet: Neighbourhood Catchments - Work with your neighbours to manage your catchment's resources.

Managing land to improve biodiversity is an important public service. The FBA Biodiversity Incentive Scheme recognises this by providing funding to landholders for conservation practices.

If you have a patch of land that you think is worth looking after, contact FBA for more details on how the scheme works.
