Rehabilitation agronomy - guidelines for revegetating degraded land [Australia; Western Australia]. [Symposium paper]

Rehabilitation aims to stop soil erosion and improve land for its allotted use. Successful rehabilitation depends on adequate site characterization leading to adequate prescription of site preparation, species and ecotype selection, establishment niche engineering, and protection from predators. Attempts at rehabilitation of arid and semi-arid degraded land in Australia have often been unsuccessful. Western Australian experience in rehabilitation of salt-affected farmland has provided techniques that are promising for degraded rangeland and mine dumps.
