Myall Station

Myall Station is a Human-Induced Regeneration (HIR) carbon project located in the remote Far West region of New South Wales, approximately 85km east of White Cliffs and 100km north-northeast of Wilcannia. Registered in March 2022, the project covers a substantial area of 24,033 hectares. It is situated within the Central Darling Shire, a region distinct from the "Myall Creek" station near Inverell; this project lies firmly in the semi-arid rangelands associated with the Paroo River system.

The project operates under the Human-Induced Regeneration methodology, which involves changes in land management to facilitate the regrowth of native forest. Rather than planting new trees, the proponent, AI Carbon Projects No 3 Pty Ltd, manages the timing and extent of livestock grazing and controls feral animals. These activities reduce pressure on existing vegetation, allowing suppressed rootstock and in-situ seeds (primarily Mulga and other native species) to regenerate into permanent forest cover.

Environmentally, the region is characterized by a semi-arid to arid climate with an average annual rainfall of approximately 250mm. The landscape typically features red earth and sandy loam soils, often associated with the Mulga Lands bioregion. The property has historically been used for extensive grazing of sheep and cattle. Historical property listings for the "Myall and Norma Downs" aggregation suggest the area benefits from flood-out country from the Paroo River system, which can provide significant soft fattening feed during good seasons, contrasting with the surrounding hard red country.

The project is managed by Australian Integrated Carbon (AI Carbon), a specialist carbon farming developer. By ceasing mechanical clearing and managing grazing pressure, the project aims to sequester carbon in the regenerating biomass while maintaining a compatible grazing operation.
