 A076 Queensland Agricultural Journal. Special issue: agroforestry
F.R.Wylie et al. 1984. Queensland Agricultural Journal. 1984, 110: 1, 1-74
The TREECD abstract states: "It is the policy of the Queensland government to encourage landholders
to plan their land use, and to
maintain adequate tree cover on areas which are unstable or unsuited for food production. The management
of existing trees on farms, and
the planning and development of new plantings can fulfil the 6 basic objectives of this policy, which
are the control of salinity, stabilization
of erodible areas, provision of shelter and windbreaks, maintenance of water quality, wildlife conservation,
and provision of timber for farm
and commercial use. The 21 papers in this special agroforestry edition of the Queensland Agricultural
Journal outline simple and practical
ways for landholders to deal with these issues, providing guidelines on the planting and maintenance
of a healthy tree cover. The term
agroforestry is used in its broadest sense to include any use of trees on farms. The papers included
are: Rural tree dieback (Wylie, F.R.;
Johnston, P.J.M.); Trees and erosion control (Houghton, D.); Trees and salinity (Hughes, K.K.); Forest
