Puig, C. J., R. Greiner, C. Huchery, I. Perkins, L. Bowen, N. Collier e S. T. Garnett. "Beyond cattle: potential futures of the pastoral industry in the Northern Territory". Rangeland Journal 33, n. 2 (2011): 181. http://dx.doi.org/10.1071/rj10043.
Testo completoAbstract (sommario):
The pastoral industry of the Northern Territory faces a suite of environmental and economic challenges associated with, inter alia, export markets, costs of production, climate change, change in government policies, and potential cattle diseases. A participatory planning process was adopted by the industry’s principal representative body, the Northern Territory Cattlemen’s Association to explore the complexity and extent of possible impacts on the industry, and to initiate conversations about anticipating potential futures. The process was facilitated by a system dynamics model, named the Pastoral Properties Future Simulator (PPFS). The PPFS combined a systems modelling approach of the pastoral industry with scenario explorations to gauge the likely impacts on, and possible industry adaptations to, beef price variation, productivity improvements, diversification of land use, climate change, climate policy and employment. The PPFS was used as an interactive tool during stakeholder workshops and results underpinned discussions about impacts and adaptation strategies. Land use and enterprise diversification emerged as key strategies for building enterprise and industry resilience, but with regionally diverging emphasis. The research illustrates the benefits of applied systems dynamic modelling for participatory strategic planning in the face of an uncertain future. The PPFS helped industry members and stakeholders understand the complexity of drivers affecting the industry’s future, risk profiles, possible adaptation strategies and trade-offs.

Testo completoAbstract (sommario):
The past decade has seen several high profile national policy conflicts related to sustainable development beset the northern Australian pastoral industry. Examples include the live cattle export ban, tree clearing legislation in Queensland and significant pastoral sector concerns about exploration and development of coal and gas reserves across the north. Although these are very legitimate cross-societal debates, the high levels of conflict associated with them impact on the willingness of corporate, family and Indigenous farming enterprises in northern Australia to invest in development. They also affect the willingness and capacities of pastoralists to cooperate with governments in various approaches to change management in northern landscapes. In the pursuit of a better pathway that might resolve policy problems while also delivering industry benefit, this paper analyses several high-profile industry and landscape scale conflicts from recent years, teasing out the key features of governance system dysfunction. At the same time, I also look at positive governance developments emerging in related contexts. Drawing on this analysis, I suggest the current system of governance affecting the northern Australian pastoral industry might have much to learn from the application of more evidence rich and engaging systems of co-management. I suggest that moving in this direction, however, would require Australian, state and Northern Territory (NT) governments to genuinely partner the industry, Traditional Owners and other key sectoral interests, leading to long-term vision building, strategy development and delivery partnerships that benefit industry and communities while resolving wider societal concerns.

"Opportunities for fire and carbon on pastoral properties in the savanna rangelands: perspectives from the Indigenous Land Corporation and the Northern Territory Cattlemen's Association". Rangeland Journal 36, n. 4 (2014): 403. http://dx.doi.org/10.1071/rj14025.
Testo completoAbstract (sommario):
Understanding both the carbon dynamics within Australia’s northern savannas and the opportunities presented through diversification into carbon markets is of relevance to pastoral land managers both in Australia and globally. The Indigenous Land Corporation (ILC), through its role in assisting Indigenous people to acquire and manage land for cultural, social, environmental and economic benefits, has operated in the carbon market and is keen to continue working with its partners to explore the opportunities to develop and broaden this further. The Northern Territory Cattlemen’s Association, as the major industry body for the pastoral industry in the Northern Territory, has been actively involved in assessing the opportunities which may be presented through greenhouse gas abatement where these are compatible with sound resource and economic management. In recent years, Australian governments have considered and developed diversified carbon abatement opportunities for farmers, particularly through the Carbon Farming Initiative (CFI). Australian Carbon Credit Units generated through the CFI can contribute to meeting Australia’s commitments under international agreements to reduce greenhouse gas emissions. The opportunity for economic diversification into carbon farming on marginal land where the primary land use is pastoralism is of particular interest, particularly where it can lead to strengthened economic returns, jobs and other benefits for Indigenous people. Lessons learnt from the ILC’s Fish River Fire Project demonstrate the potential, but also emphasise the need for further research into the practicalities of introducing carbon projects into predominantly pastoral landscapes in Australia and internationally. It is suggested that several issues require further assessment by pastoralists who may be considering engaging in the CFI or other carbon markets.

Testo completoAbstract (sommario):
Feral camels occur over almost 3.3 million km2 of the Australian rangelands, including parts of the Northern Territory, Queensland, South Australia and Western Australia. Within this range, pastoral land encompasses an area of 1.39 million km2 (1189 properties). The pastoral industry was identified as one of the key stakeholder groups to work with under the Australian Feral Camel Management Project. The impacts of feral camels fall into three main categories: economic, environmental and social/cultural. It should be noted that not all pastoralists were impacted by feral camels. Under the Australian Feral Camel Management Project, multiple approaches were used to engage the pastoral industry through their involvement in developing partnerships, operational planning, implementation and communication. Critical to the success of the project was the commitment to effectively consult with landholders, build partnerships, respect landholder values, establish effective project governance and adopt a flexible management approach.

Walsh, Dionne, e Robyn A. Cowley. "Looking back in time: can safe pasture utilisation rates be determined using commercial paddock data in the Northern Territory?" Rangeland Journal 33, n. 2 (2011): 131. http://dx.doi.org/10.1071/rj11003.
Testo completoAbstract (sommario):
A ‘safe’ pasture utilisation rate is defined as the proportion of annual forage growth that can be consumed by domestic livestock without adversely affecting land condition in the long term. Pasture utilisation rates are thus a cornerstone of a sustainable grazing industry because they directly determine livestock carrying capacity. Until now, it has only been possible to determine utilisation rates in the Northern Territory via expensive and time-consuming grazing trials. Reliance on this method has limited the validation of safe utilisation rates for the range of land types used for pastoral production. This study tested an alternative cost-effective method for calculating utilisation rates based on an approach used previously in Queensland. The method retrospectively calculates utilisation rates using cattle records and modelled pasture growth from commercial paddocks in good land condition. The assumption underpinning the method is that paddocks in good land condition, with a long history of grazing, must have been managed in such a way as to achieve a safe level of pasture utilisation. Utilisation rates were calculated for 10 commercial paddocks on three properties in the Barkly Tableland region of the Northern Territory from 1999 to 2009. Animal intake for each paddock was calculated from detailed cattle records held in property databases. Pasture growth was estimated using simulation models and cross-checked with field measurements. An average utilisation rate of up to 25% of annual pasture growth was found to be safe on highly uniform, grey cracking-clays supporting Mitchell grass (Astrebla F. Muell. spp.) pastures. However, this level of utilisation had negative impacts on land condition on less resilient and preferentially grazed pasture communities in paddocks with a mix of land types. The implications of the results for carrying capacity, animal productivity and seasonal risk management are explored in this paper.

"Evaluating the shifts in rainfall and pasture-growth variabilities across the pastoral zone of Australia during 1910–2010". Crop and Pasture Science 70, n. 7 (2019): 634. http://dx.doi.org/10.1071/cp18482.
Testo completoAbstract (sommario):
Interannual rainfall variability in Australia is a source of risk within agricultural industries. Insights into changes to rainfall and pasture-growth variabilities are essential to inform adaptation strategies for climate risk management within the grazing industry. We investigated shifts in rainfall and pasture-growth variabilities between the periods 1910–1960 and 1961–2010 for the pastoral zone in Australia. Rainfall variability was also assessed for the high-rainfall and wheat–sheep zones. An index of variability was calculated by using gridded rainfall and pasture-growth data for both periods. The percentage change was then calculated as the difference in variation between the two periods. Overall, the variability of annual rainfall has significantly increased (P < 0.01) between the two periods for the pastoral zone. Pastoral regions in the Northern Territory had the greatest increases in pasture-growth variability, with 62–85% of the area affected by a significant increase in variability. Between the periods 1910–1960 and 1961–2010 across the wheat–sheep zone, annual rainfall variability significantly decreased (P < 0.01), with 70% of the area having a negative change, whereas for the high-rainfall zone, the variability did not change significantly. Monitoring ongoing trends in rainfall and pasture-growth variability is important to inform strategic grazing management. Management practices to mitigate the impacts of increased variability in pastoral regions are discussed.

Testo completoAbstract (sommario):
The management of fire in savannas has been informed by a strong tradition of fire experiments, especially in Africa. This research tradition is much shorter in the 2 million square kilometres of tropical savannas in northern Australia, but has yielded several natural experiments, and three designed, manipulative, controlled field experiments (hereafter 'manipulative' experiments) of international significance (at Munmarlary, Kapalga and Kidman Springs in the Northern Territory). Here we assess the contributions of experiments, in particular the manipulative experiments, to ecological understanding and biodiversity management in Australia's savannas. Running from 1973 to 1996, the Munmarlary experiment comprised hectare-scale experimental plots with four replicated dry season fire treatments, and was designed to examine interactions between fire, landscape and biodiversity. The Kapalga experiment ran from 1989 to 1995, with a range of fire treatments broadly similar to those at Munmarlary. However, experimental units were 10–20�km2 sub-catchments, making it one of the largest, replicated fire experiments ever conducted. The Kidman Springs experiment focused on grass-layer productivity and composition to meet the needs of the pastoral industry, but also provided an opportunity to examine biodiversity responses to different fire regimes. Methodologically, the experiments have generally focused on phenomena—the responses to different fire treatments of individual taxa—rather than on mechanisms that determine response syndromes. They have highlighted that a range of responses to differences in fire regime is possible, and that no single fire regime can optimise all biodiversity outcomes. For effective conservation of biodiversity in the face of such complexity, conservation goals will need to be made explicit. The existing portfolio of manipulative experiments is incomplete, lacking especially a consideration of some critical savanna taxa and environments, and providing little information on the significance of spatial and temporal variability in fire patterns, especially at small scales. An understanding of fire in Australian savanna landscapes remains inadequate, so there is a continuing need for close partnerships between scientists and conservation managers, with fire management treated as a series of landscape experiments in an adaptive management framework.

Richard Sellers is the executive director of minerals and energy in the Northern Territory and has extensive experience with the management of natural resources and working specifically with business, regional and Indigenous groups on development programs. He has previously held roles as Executive Director—Fisheries and Director—Legal and Policy in the former Northern Territory Department of Primary Industry and Fisheries. This paper covers the annual presentation of exploration activity in onshore and coastal waters in Australia’s states and the Northern Territory. Included is a summary of upstream petroleum acreage opportunities for 2009 in the states and Northern Territory as well as geothermal energy exploration opportunities. While there have been increasing levels of exploration in recent years, there are large areas that remain under explored and the opportunity for future discoveries remains. State and the Northern Territory Governments have continued to undertake initiatives to attract and facilitate accelerated exploration and promote nationally and internationally these opportunities in frontier and production areas.

Testo completoAbstract (sommario):
This thesis investigates the racism exhibited by Administrators, Pastoralists
and Trade Unionists towards Aborigines employed in the Northern
Territory cattle industry during the Depression years, 1929 to 1934. Their
racism is examined within the framework of sociological and historical
theories of racism. An historical evolution of racism is outlined, showing
that from Colonial history emerged Colonial racism, which regarded
'natives' as an inferior race destined to serve as a cheap source of labour for
European colonists. This racism occurred in two main forms: as a
'primitive' and violent racism; and as a 'civilised', paternalistic racism. The
development of nationalism coincided with the rise of a Nationalistic
racism which defined the nation as an homogeneous people, excluding all
others as inherently inferior. As the colonial era drew to an end, and
colonial 'natives' began to immigrate to Europe, their position within the
modern nation-states became problematic. Where they continued to be
regarded as a source of cheap labour, their exploitation provoked a racist
reaction from the working class, referred to as Migrant Labour racism or
Competitive racism.
This thesis argues that European racism in the Northern Territory can only
be fully understood if we consider that each of these forms of racism existed
simultaneously. This historical anomaly saw the merging of a dependent
colonial frontier with a modern nation-state, and the racist attitudes of the
Europeans reflect this situation. The Administrators legitimised their
racism with arguments of Social Darwinism while seeking to promote
Nationalistic racism. Economic considerations, however, made the
arguments of Colonial racism appear attractive. The Pastoralists exhibited
Colonial racism in all its forms, both primitive and paternalistic. In their
official dealings, they also utilised arguments of Nationalistic and Scientific
racism. The Unionists exhibited a Competitive racism which was tempered
by left-wing influences which advocated an end to racial discrimination as
the only solution to Aboriginal competition. In each group, the
manifestations of racism were complex and varied, revealing that racist
ideology w as inextricably linked with social, economic and political
considerations.

Aboriginal peoples' involvement in the pastoral industry of the Northern Territory
has been a feature of that industry almost since first contact between Aboriginal people and non-Aboriginal people. However, whilst Aboriginal involvement in the pastoral industry has been celebrated in terms of their bush skills and their
qualities as stockmen, their association with the industry has always been ambivalent. For it was the pastoral industry that occupied and exploited their traditional land. Aboriginal peoples' involvement in the pastoral industry was
both exploitative and oppressive as they were always restricted to fulfilling a
labour provision role. The development of Aboriginal people as owners and managers of pastoral cattle enterprises is relatively new, dating from the mid 1970s. This involvement has arisen in part through the policies directed at meeting Aboriginal peoples' land needs through various pastoral property acquisition policies, and in part through the privatisation of government and mission cattle projects. The policies that have supported Aboriginal involvement as owners and managers of pastoral properties
have varied over time ranging from support for employment, meat selfsufficiency
and commercial success, to an increasing focus on commercial success only. The increased emphasis of policy and program upon commercial success has had a number of outcomes. The number of properties receiving economic development support has been reduced, as has the actual number of operating beef cattle enterprises. In addition, herds on Aboriginal properties have been substantially reduced and there has been no real independent Aboriginal-owned
and operated pastoral sector established. This has occurred because, to a large extent, policy has ignored the biogeographical, social and industry factors that constrained the development of an Aboriginal-owned and operated cattle industry. The primary factor for the failure of the policies to develop a commercially successful Aboriginal owned, operated and managed cattle industry in the Northern Territory is that the policies and the programs that supported them did not support Aboriginal people in their multiple land use aspirations, which in many cases included cattle production.

Prince, Peter Herman. "Aliens in their own land. 'Alien' and the rule of law in colonial and post-federation Australia". Phd thesis, 2015. http://hdl.handle.net/1885/101778.
Testo completoAbstract (sommario):
This thesis argues that the ‘rule of law’ was not followed in
colonial and post-federation Australia in relation to a
fundamental principle of the common law. According to the rule in
Calvin’s Case (1608), no person born as a ‘subject’ in any
part of the King’s dominions could be an ‘alien’. This was
the legal position in Australia from the reception of English law
until well after federation.
In colonial and post-federation Australia the racial meaning of
‘alien’ was consistently used in political and legal contexts
instead of its proper legal meaning. In legislation and
parliamentary debates, cases and prosecutions, inter-colonial
conferences and conventions it was employed to refer not merely
to those who were ‘aliens’ under the common law but also to
people regarded as ‘aliens’ in the broader or racial sense of
the word, especially those of non-European background. Chinese
and Indian settlers, Pacific islanders and even indigenous
Australians were treated as ‘aliens’ in Australia even if
under British law they were actually ‘subjects’ of the Crown
and not ‘aliens’ at all in the accepted legal sense.
In the 1820s and 1830s the New South Wales Supreme Court thought
it inconceivable that ‘barbarous’ indigenous inhabitants
could ‘owe fealty’ or allegiance to the British Crown,
considering their legal position analogous to that of
‘foreigners’ or ‘strangers’. In debates on exclusionary
legislation in the 1870s and 1880s, parliamentarians in the
Australian colonies portrayed all Chinese settlers as
‘aliens’, despite acknowledging that many came from Hong
Kong, the Straits Settlements or other British possessions.
Immigrants from British India were generally treated the same
way. Delegates to Australia’s constitutional conventions in the
1890s, including prominent legal figures, repeated this mistake.
And in the 1900s Pacific islanders born in Australia as British
subjects were deported as ‘aliens’ with the approval of the
Australian High Court. The misuse of ‘alien’ in this case
contributed to a defective judgment still cited today in support
of the Commonwealth’s claims to extensive exclusionary power.
Between federation and the Second World War, Queensland’s
dictation test legislation and industrial awards regulating
various occupations provide many examples of the misuse and
manipulation of the term ‘alien’ in a legal context. In
prosecutions under these laws the word was used as a weapon
against non-Europeans whether they were ‘aliens’ under the
law or not.
Commentators both in the early years of federation and in more
recent times have failed to identify the misuse of ‘alien’–
and have made the same error themselves. This mistake is critical
because of the continued force of the term in Australian law. The
Commonwealth’s sweeping power to define who shall be citizens
of Australia and to exclude, detain indefinitely without trial
and deport ‘aliens’ is still justified by reference to
colonial and post-federation cases and constitutional convention
debates where ‘alien’ was incorrectly used in its racial
sense contrary to the rule of law.

This chapter investigates how the hospitality industry of the Northern Territory of Australia achieves organizational flexibility in dynamic labor environments. A case study in the Northern Territory of Australia reveals a new type of organizational flexibility, “relational flexibility.” Relational flexibility is the result of behaviors, which go beyond the scope of job descriptions, used to repair the relational disruptions of labor changes and to adapt to the inevitability of labor dynamism. With relational flexibility, hospitality businesses can become flexible, responsive, and adaptable to dynamic labor environments while ensuring knowledge management activities are not inhibited. This research highlights the central role of peer relationships in dynamic labor environments and contributes to the organizational flexibility, staff turnover, and hospitality knowledge management literature.

Testo completoAbstract (sommario):
Energy conservation has become an issue of global significance, which is a focus reflected in the Australian housing industry’s renewed emphasis on energy-efficient design. The Australian Building Codes Board (ABCB) has proposed to increase the stringency of the Building Code of Australia (BCA) to ensure the industry adopts energy efficient measures, including the enhancement of thermal performance and greater recognition of thermal mass in energy rating schemes. However, this proposal’s potential to effect energy savings in tropical housing is yet to be assessed. In order to determine its relative merits under tropical conditions, a standardised house design used in the Tiwi Islands of the Northern Territory (NT) was subjected to life cycle analysis, including analysis of embodied energy, the efficiency of energy saving measures and the resulting active energy consumption. This standardised house, like others in the NT, is designed for retrofitting within 10 years, which reduces the time available for savings in operational energy to exceed energy invested in installing these measures. Housing lifespan would, therefore, significantly impact upon potential benefits resulting from changes to the BCA. In addition, the spatial distances between population settlements in the NT greatly increases embodied energy values. It was found that adopting the proposed measures would result in an increase in energy efficiency through a reduction in the need for refrigerative air conditioner use, and that the embodied energy payback period would fall within the lifespan of the house. Therefore, for this specific tropical design, the BCA’s proposed measures for saving energy were found to be beneficial.
