About Us

The Eyre Peninsula Landscape Board (the Board) is one of eight regional landscape boards and Green Adelaide that are responsible for supporting local communities to manage soils, water, pests, and biodiversity through the Landscape Act.

The local economy is diverse and includes primary industries (cereal crops, sheep, cattle and viticulture), health and community services, manufacturing, retail trade, construction, education and training and mining.
