Biodiversity Stewardship Agreement Case StudyBiodiversity Stewardship Agreement • June 20th, 2019
NSW Blueberry Farmer Jinder Rai has been farming in NSW for 25 years. We met Jinder in 2018 when he came into our Coffs Harbor office upset that he could do nothing with a part of his property constrained by the threatened plant Moonee Quassia. Ultimately Jinder has wanted to expand his blueberry farm in this section of his property for a number of years but was being constrained by both Federal and State legislation recognising the plant to be endangered. We talked through another option for him that had recently been brought into effect by the NSW government for just this sort of issue. It is called the Biodiversity Offset Scheme and was released in 2017.
