Recognised Biosecurity Groups (RBG) Western Australia

Landholders that have growing concerns about declared weeds and feral animals in their community can form Recognised Biosecurity Groups (RBGs) under the Biosecurity and Agriculture Management Act 2007 (BAM Act). These groups are funded by a Declared Pest Rate which is matched each year by the State Government, to double the funds available for use. RBGs help landholders, both public and private, to control declared pests. They build awareness, deliver training and information, hire out equipment, provide on-ground resources and other materials needed for pest management. RBGs organise coordinated activities such as community baiting days and fox shoots, and build partnerships with other RBGs, industry and agencies to control pests that require large-scale regional efforts, such as wild dogs and feral pigs. https://www.agric.wa.gov.au/bam/recognised-biosecurity-groups
