Cape York NRM and the TNQ Drought Hub’s Sustainable Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Enterprise (SATSIE) Program are joining forces with local councils and businesses to support agricultural projects and food security through a Cultivating Climate-Smart and Sustainable Agriculture project in Cape York Peninsula.

Cape York NRM showcased its new Cultivating Climate-Smart and Sustainable Agriculture project at a recent field day in Cooktown for producers across the Annan, Endeavour, and Normanby catchments.

Lauren O’Bryan has joined Cape York NRM as the region’s new Sustainable Agriculture Facilitator (SAF) — the primary contact for supporting sustainable land management across the Cape.

The 2025 Grazing Forum, hosted by Cape York NRM and held in Laura on Tuesday 20 and Wednesday 21 May, brought together graziers, land managers, Traditional Owners, stakeholders and industry experts from across the region. The packed two-day program featured expert presentations, engaging discussions, and a practical demonstration.
