33 Rd Annual Report 1981/82 SOIL CONSERVATION AUTHORITY · 33 rd Annual Report 1981/82. VICTORIA Report of the SOIL CONSERVATION AUTHORITY for the Year ended 30 June 1982 Ordered by the Legislative Assembly· to be printed MELBOURNE F D ATKINSON GOVERNMENT PRINTER 1982 No. 51 Cover: The effects of salting can be devastating. As the salty water-table rises it reaches root systems causing trees and plants to die. Salt also breaks down the soil structure making the land more prone to the various forms oferosion. The result is a desert-like landscape. 2 SOIL CONSERVATION AUTHORITY ----·-------- 378 Cotham Road, Kew, Victoria, 3101 The Honourable Evan Walker, M.l.C., 29 October 1982 Minister for Conservation. Dear Mr. Walker, In accordance with the provisions of the Soil Conservation and Land Utilization Act 1958 No. 6372, the Soil Conservation Authority submits to you for presentation to Parliament its Annual Report for the year ended 30 June 1982.

STONE Chief Engineer GH FINDLAY B.E.Agric. 7 THE YEAR IN BRIEF Soil Conservation Advice Authority staff made over 11,000 inspections to provide advice on erosion prevention and control. This included 2,000 visits to group projects, 1,800 for farm water supply advice, 500 for water supply catchment supervision and 700 for the control of extractive activities, as well as 3,000 to assist local government and Government departments. Erosion Control The amount of structural erosion control work carried out was the highest for ten years. The upsurge is attributed to three factors: need, the good rural economy, and a prolonged construction season. Dryland Salinity Investigations by Authority staff have enabled the preliminary mapping of Victoria into hydrogeological salinity provinces. These provinces will provide a planning base for salinity control programs. Meanwhile, Mr. Williamson of CSIRO working with the Authority's Bendigo salinity team has estimated that it will take 400 to 1,600 years for the salt to be removed from most catchments between the Goulburn and the Avoca rivers. Farm Water Supply A total of 440 dams and 208 km of pipeline were surveyed. The reduced amount compared to 1980/81 is attributed to the introduction of service charges and the competing demand for staff time on erosion control work. Coastal Erosion Thirty grants amounting to $97,000, were made for the control of foreshore erosion. Eleven grants, valued at $64,000, had to be refused for lack of funds. Water Supply Catchments Three water supply catchments, covering 208 km2 were proclaimed bringing to a total of 75 the number of proclaimed catchments in Victoria. Proclaimed catchments now cover approximately one sixth of the State. Land Capability Land capability assessments were provided to 15 planning authorities as a basis for planning decisions. Wind Erosion A survey in late autumn 1982 showed that 50 per cent of light soils and 10 per cent of the land area of the Mallee, was subject to wind erosion. National Soil Conservation The Commonwealth Government allocated $3 million to the States for soil Program conservation for the period 1981/82. The value of the Federal allocation as a stimulus to soil conservation in Victoria was difficult to ascertain as the allocation was absorb~d into general revenue grants to the State and no "earmarked" funds flowed on to the Authority. Legislation The Soil Conservation and Land Utilization (Amendment) Act 1981 confirmed the role of the Soil Conservation Authority in combatting the problem of dryland salinity. The amendments also contained the important provision that conditions imposed on the land within water supply catchments are now binding on all subsequent owners or occupiers of that land, not only on current owners or occupiers as is the case at present. Reviews Two independent reviews of the services provided by the Authority came to the same conclusion on one point; land resource assessment services currently dispersed in other organisations would be more effective if combined with those of the Authority and under Authority guidance. No action has resulted from these recommendations. 8 OVERVIEW Sixty per cent of the Soil Conservation Authority dune reclamation, 100 km of protective fencing staff are based in the field.

    Sustainable land management – Sea Lake, Hopetoun and Waitchie David Moody, Jodie Odgers and Bobby Liston, BCG Take home messages • Yield Prophet®- the crop simulation model- is a great tool for assessing crop risk and predicting potential yields. • For renovating overgrazed perennial pasture paddocks, the sowing of cereals is a low risk strategy. • Pasture establishment is extremely difficult in the Mallee in years with limited spring rainfall. • Cereal biomass production may be greater by an order of 10 times than either perennial or leguminous pastures in the first year of establishment. • Best pasture options for a June sowing in terms of biomass in the first year of establishment are either forage brassica or Italian Ryegrass. Background In order to measure and report the potential impact of best management practices for dryland agriculture in the Mallee, six demonstration sites were established in 2005, and a seventh (Sea Lake) was established in 2006. The sites at Sea Lake, Hopetoun, Waitchie, Carwarp, Cowangie, Chinkapook and Walpeup represent a range of land and farming systems. Each site tackles one or more of the various aspects of sustainable agriculture such as salinity management, soil erosion, soil health and nutrient management. BCG is responsible for monitoring and assists with the implementation of best management practices for the Sea Lake, Hopetoun and Waitchie sites. In 2007, all three sites underwent extensive soil sampling and analysis prior to sowing. Throughout the year measurements of the following factors were taken; comparative productivity, water use efficiency, ground water, water use and balance, soil nutrition, soil biota, crop biomass and yields. Sea Lake Demonstration Site The site is 118ha in size and situated 1 km south east of the Sea Lake township.

It has the nation's most comprehensive reserve system forming the cornerstone for the sustainable use of Victoria's terrestrial, freshwater and marine ecosystems. In 2020, these 'jewels in Victoria's crown' are highly valued by the local community and international visitors. As our understanding of the biodiversity of Victoria increased many 'conservation' issues were resolved because there was an increased awareness of what each component added to the health of the environment.
