Natural resource management (NRM) is the sustainable management of the land, water, atmosphere, and biodiversity resources for the benefit of existing and future generations, and for the maintenance of life support capability of the biosphere.
By taking a landscape approach, the management of production and conservation can be integrated across land and water boundaries. This recognises the importance of managing our natural resources to deliver economic and social wellbeing for people and industry for the long term, while maintaining integral habitat for the plethora of native species that rely on that habitat for their survival.
The State NRM Program is designed to conserve and sustainably manage the State鈥檚 natural resources by supporting community groups with information and grant funding.
The WA Natural Resource Management Framework sets out the 91短视频鈥檚 direction for working together in partnership to manage WA鈥檚 natural resources for the future, and guides the direction of the State NRM Program.
