In 1956 the N.S.W. Dept. of Agriculture and the CSIRO entered into an agreement to study the Southern Tablelands of N.S.W. as a basis for future research and extension planning. A Joint Planning Committee was appointed. Between 1956-1962 this committee issued a number of reports on the physical and agricultural resources of the region. During 1960-1961 a representative of each of the Agricultural Bureau Graziers' Association and Farmers' and Settlers' Association was added to the Committee. Under "Operation Tintacks" a group, headed by a project officer, Mr. D. Walters (1960-1969) was appointed to study in detail several farms in the Yass Valley District so that new management programmes could be developed. At a public meeting held in Yass on March 28 1962, the Yass Valley Organization was formed. YVO publishes a periodical known as the Yass Valley newsletter.
