The ‘Delivering economic stimulus through the conservation and land management sector’ report released today, examines the economic impacts of a proposed conservation and land management stimulus program developed by a coalition of more than 70 conservation, farming and land management groups, including ALCA.  

Prepared by Ernst & Young, the report finds that a $4 billion national conservation and land management employment program would create 53,000 jobs, reduce welfare costs by $620 million and raise economic output by $5.7 billion over the next four years, with economic gains rising to $9.3 billion over the next 20 years.
