Miltalie 10 (Revoked)

ERF172308

Project Information:

Miltalie 10 (Revoked) is an environmental planting project located at Miltalie, situated roughly 25km northwest of the coastal town of Cowell on South Australia's Eyre Peninsula. It was registered in May 2022 by the trustees for the Broad Acre Unit Trust and originally covered 26.36 hectares.

Environmental planting projects under the Reforestation by Environmental or Mallee Plantings methodology involve establishing permanent plantings of mixed native tree species on land that was predominantly used for agriculture for at least five years prior to commencement. These projects generally require planting native trees at a density of at least 200 stems per hectare to ensure the area eventually achieves genuine forest cover (typically defined as reaching a minimum of 2 meters in height and 20% crown cover).

The Eyre Peninsula is a prominent region for broadacre farming and is well known for vast cereal cropping operations and sheep grazing. The local area features a semi-arid Mediterranean climate with relatively low, winter-dominant rainfall, and the region's soils are generally comprised of sandy loams and clay.

Interestingly, this project saw multiple variations to its boundaries after registration, with land added to the project area in November 2022 and subsequently removed in August 2023. Ultimately, the project was officially revoked in October 2025 under section 30 of the CFI Rule, meaning it is no longer participating in the scheme.
