Abstract
During the Land, Water & Wool Northern Tablelands Project (NSW), three Case Study farms - 'The Hill', 'Lana' and 'Nant Lodge' - were selected to demonstrate three quite different examples of profitable, biodiverse wool production. The owner-managers of all three properties recognised the value of biodiversity to their commercial success (see Box: Case Study booklets). However, the properties differed markedly in area, soil type, length of family ownership, intensity of development, grazing management and tree cover (Table 1). In order to assess biodiversity values, vertebrate fauna surveys were conducted in the summer of 2002-03. The aim was to establish the range and diversity of species on each property.
