NAAKPA has just wrapped up its drone training program in the Northern Territory, with nine participants achieving their CASA certified Remote Pilot Licence (RePL). This brings the total number of RePL qualified participants supported across NT and WA to eleven.
Participants included rangers from Thamarrurr and Larrakia, along with Kakadu Kitchen, all building new capability to support wild harvest operations on Country.
Supported by the Climate Smart Agriculture Capacity Building Grants, the program strengthens the use of drone technology for bushfoods — from surveying access to Kakadu plum sites during the early dry season to monitoring fruit availability and mapping resources across homelands.
This training opens the door to new applications of drone tech that can improve efficiency, support cultural land management, and grow the native foods sector.

Professor Eddie Pang has spent the week in the NT sharing his deep plant science knowledge with communities as part of the Climate Smart Agriculture Capacity Building Program.
In Darwin, he joined NAAKPA staff at the NT Herbarium and along the Casuarina Coastal Reserve to collect Kakadu plum samples for the Kakadu Plum Genome Project — an important step in strengthening future cultivar development led by Traditional Owners.
He then travelled to Maningrida to run a hands on workshop with the Bawinanga Aboriginal Corporation nursery team, covering air layering, grafting and cutting techniques. NAAKPA Director and Traditional Owner Leila Nimbadja also took part, reinforcing the importance of community driven science and knowledge sharing.
