Farming and protecting the critically endangered Peppermint Box Grassy Woodland

About this fact sheet

Since European settlement, most of the Peppermint Box Grassy Woodland of South Australia has been cleared, or degraded by pasture improvement and, in some circumstances, grazing. The small amount of woodland of this type remaining in good condition is now protected under Australia’s national environment law—the Environment Protection and Biodiversity Conservation Act 1999 (EPBC Act).
