Eversfield Forest Regeneration Project

Eversfield Forest Regeneration Project is a Human-Induced Regeneration project located in the Maranoa region of southern inland Queensland, approximately 130km west of Roma. It was registered in March 2022 and covers 17,974.50 hectares.

Human-Induced Regeneration projects involve establishing permanent even-aged native forests by changing land management practices. In this project, the proponent is ceasing mechanical and chemical destruction of native vegetation, and managing the timing and extent of livestock grazing. These interventions aim to remove the suppressive forces that have historically prevented regrowth, allowing permanent native forests to regenerate from in-situ seed sources like rootstock and lignotubers.

The Maranoa region is characterised by a semi-arid climate with variable rainfall, making agricultural operations heavily reliant on resilience strategies. The area features a diverse range of vegetation such as box woodland and brigalow-belah, and soil types vary from deep gilgaied clay to red and brown earths and sandy loams. The predominant land use across the region is extensive beef cattle grazing and some grain or forage cropping on arable soils.

The project is operated by Urana Carbon Farming Pty Ltd as Trustee for the Crook-King Family Trust, with Climate Friendly Pty Ltd acting as an additional participant. Interestingly, Australian Carbon Credit Units (ACCUs) generated by this proponent have been purchased and retired by major corporations like FleetPartners in 2025 to achieve carbon neutral corporate operations and certifications.
