We recognise that grazing livestock can play an important role in vegetation management and supporting resilient upland landscapes. This includes the potential for grazing to reduce the amount of combustible fuel and thus the risk of wildfire. We will discuss this and other approaches to reducing wildfire risk at the summit which the First Minister will convene later this year.
The Sustainable Production Technical Group is considering livestock efficiency and productivity systems in delivering sustainable land management outcomes which includes looking at what support is offered in other nations.
