"They should be paying for it": Kevin Humphries says farmers should be reimbursed. Photo: Tamara Dean
Farmers banned from clearing their land should be reimbursed and society must pay to save native plants and animals on private property, says the top environmental economist heading a shake-up of NSW's biodiversity laws.
In an interview with Fairfax Media, Neil Byron, who is leading the independent review,has given the first indication of potential changes to contentious rules governing land clearing and threatened species protection.
Senior Nationals MPs have been heavily criticised for linking land clearing laws to the death of NSW environment compliance officer Glen Turner, who was killed while carrying out his work near Moree in July.

Dr Byronbacked comments by Nationals MP Kevin Humphries that if the community wants farmers to set aside productive land "they should be paying for it".

"If we as a public want these things saved, we ... have to pay at least part of the costs," Dr Byron said, adding farmers should be encouraged to maintain land, not just set it aside.
"What frequently happens is having identified something of high importance, we then ignore it and let it degrade."
He said such reimbursement need not be "extraordinarily expensive to taxpayers" and might involve expanding biodiversity offset schemes, in which impacts from development on threatened species are offset by restoring equivalent biodiversity elsewhere.
The Philadelphia Land Bank, a nascent agency organized to streamline the redevelopment of thousands of Philadelphias vacant and tax-delinquent properties, releaseda draft of a strategic planon Wednesday recommending a number of goals the new body should pursue over the next five years.
The plan, which was written by a team led by Philadelphia-based Interface Studios, is the result of four months of analysis of data provided by various city agencies and meetings with dozens of advocacy groups and city officials who wrestled the Land Bank into existence.
The Land Bank board will solicit community feedback at a public hearing in mid-October and complete a final draft of the plan by the end of the month. The plan will then be sent to City Council for its approval.
Those whove followed the development of the Land Bank closely over the past few years wont find any major surprises in the draft plan. Its overarching goal is simple: to return vacant and tax delinquent property to productive reuse. Deceptively simple, perhaps, given that the Land Bank itself wouldnt have been created if those few words didnt represent an intricate, elusive goal for Philadelphia and other cities around the country.
The Land Bank is intended to address the vacancy problem by consolidating ownership of city-owned properties, acquiring privately owned tax-delinquent properties, clearing tax liens and tangled titles, and selling or otherwise transferring properties in its inventory for development or other community uses. According to the plan, it will seek to promote new affordable and market-rate housing development, the creation of new businesses and the expansion of existing ones, the vitality of urban agriculture, and the availability of open space and green infrastructure.
As part of the strategic planning process, Interface Studioalong with partners Real Estate Strategies, Inc. and Lamar Wilson Associatesprovided an updated inventory of vacant and tax-delinquent parcels in Philadelphia.
Roughly 8,000 vacant parcels are currently under some form of public ownership in Philadelphia and not committed to a specific project.
Another 24,000 properties are vacant and tax-delinquent but privately owned, according to the plan.

THE elderly farmer accused of murdering Tamworth environment officer Glen Turner told his wife moments after the killing: I simply cracked. I didnt mean to kill him.
Ian Turnbull
THE elderly farmer accused of murdering Tamworth environment officer Glen Turner told his wife moments after the killing: I simply cracked. I didnt mean to kill him.
The explosive claim came during a failed NSW Supreme Court bail application yesterday for Croppa Creek farmer Ian Robert Turnbull, who allegedly killed Mr Turner in the line of duty during a dispute over land clearing.
Turnbull, 79, was denied bail because of the risk he would continue his vendetta against other workers if he was released.
Mr Turner had been investigating illegal land clearing on properties owned by Turnbulls son, Grant, and grandson Cory on July 29 when he was allegedly ambushed by Turnbull and shotmultiple times.
He allegedly told Mr Turner, Im an old man, I dont care, I can do whatever I want.
During the bail hearing, Turnbulls barrister Tony Bellanto, QC, argued that the threat had to be seen in the context of a long-term dispute over land clearing and the shooting was really a product of an unfortunate series of contacts with the deceased, but thats over now.
His wife of 55 years Robeena June Turnbull said he told her: I simply cracked. I didnt mean to kill him.
