Redbank Farm is run by an award-winning father and son team who are doing things a little differently. Their property at Sisters Creek in north-western Tasmania is managed with precision agriculture and sustainability front of mind. Their efforts have meant the farm is now a sanctuary for threatened species, magnificent native animals and birds of prey. Their National Landcare Awards celebrate the family’s commitment to innovation in this space. To learn how they’ve done it Andrew Nichols and his son Michael join me now to discuss:

  • This father and son pair, share their favourite place to enjoy the scenery and wildlife on the property at Sisters Creek in north-western Tasmania.
  • Andrew shares the beginning of the farm and how it has evolved over the years.
  • Michael has taken on the rotational cropping, grain, beef cattle and forestry.
  • Tasmania grows 40% of the world’s legal narcotics through Poppies and Michael is the president of the Tasmania Poppy Growers Association.
  • Andrew has always had a love for nature and when he arrived in Australia, he realised he could use the native remnant bushland to his advantage.
  • Navigating the land care values with production and profit.
  • This strategy has seen the property win two National Landcare Awards.
  • As a result of creating these spaces, wedge-tailed eagles, the threatened freshwater lobster and burrowing crayfish are all thriving.
  • Using precision agriculture in the day to day running of the property.
  • What Michael and Andrew love most about life on the land.
  • A few common misconceptions they have experienced in their time.
  • What they love most about this special piece of land.
  • Andrew shares some unexpected wildlife stories.
  • The ultimate dream for the future.

We hope to see you back on the road soon, to learn more about how Australia grows on the next episode of Australian Farmers with Angie Asimus.
