The purpose of the funding was to co-fund a workshop entitled: Harnessing rhizosphere-soil-microbial interactions for increasing farm productivity and resilience of farming systems.

The aim of this research was to measure by laboratory incubation trial, fertiliser and soil mineral nitrogen supply under variable wet and dry soil conditions. The experimental design will include:

Promoting Water Smart Infrastructure Investment is a water and energy use efficiency project

designed to build the capacity of cotton irrigators to adapt to reduced water availability and

The irrigation industry is facing substantial change that is likely to affect the quantity and

timing of water supply, as well as the infrastructure involved in water delivery and use.

Water in open channels is subject to high evaporative losses. Some 701 gigalitres of

water is lost annually through evaporation from channels in Northern Victoria.
