Implications for land management

Traditional management ignores interactions between landscape elements. Different people are responsible for managing different aspects of the landscape. One person manages agricultural land, another the roads and another the nature reserves or remnant patches (if they get any management at all).

The conclusions of work completed in the Kellerberrin area was that conservation management should not be done in isolation. That is, that it is important to take a holistic approach to conservation management and incorporate what is happening within the landscape as a whole because all the elements making up the landscape interact to form the landscape as it is today.

This sort of management approach is appropriate for all landscapes.
