The CWBA believes declared pests can be better managed by working together as a community in conjunction with industry and government.
About Us
The CWBA is a recognised biosecurity group (RBGs) and has a key role in assisting landholders to control declared pests in the area of management. This area is currently defined, as Koorda, Perenjori, and Dalwallinu and Morawa which encompasses a full area of 21,901 square kilometres.
Shires
The designated area of the Central Wheatbelt Biosecurity Association is the Shires of Dalwallinu, Koorda, Morawa and Perenjori. This region is a total of 2,167,744ha. The State Barrier Fence runs along the regions eastern boundary through all four Shires. The key industry in all four Shires is agriculture focusing on grain (wheat, barley, canola and pulses) and sheep production. All shires strive to have a high standard of living, promotes business growth and nurture agriculture in balance with the environment.
