Team Members
I have been working in the H4H programme since 2018, when I joined Meat Naturally PTY in the K2C Landscape and trialled the first mobile abattoir. I then joined CSA as a stewardship incentive manager in 2021, with a focus on supporting stewards in implementing rangeland best practices, improving animal husbandry, and sustaining farming at scale within a biodiversity hotspot. Thus, in turn, farmers get better market opportunities and unlock enterprise development contingencies through the H4H programme.
Our Challenge
Uncontrolled animal movement is one of the biggest challenges in communal rangelands. Livestock that is not kraaled and herded properly results in:
- Rangeland degradation
- Predation
- Disease transmission through contact with wildlife
- Poor herd health (high mortality and morbidity)
- Poor production
- Stock theft
- Tourism conflict
- Poor market and trade confidence
Our Opportunity
Regaining livestock movement control in communal rangelands through skills development, improved resources and incentives can lead to multiple positive effects.
