HydroTerra are very excited to once again welcome Luke Peel. Luke is the Research Manager of The Mulloon Institute (TMI). He has over 30 years in agriculture, landscape regeneration and natural resource management.
In this webinar, Luke will be speaking to us about Landscape Rehydration and how it is providing a mechanism to improve agricultural and ecosystems resilience to climatic events: improving the security of water and food production whilst providing significant improvements in environmental outcomes. TMI has implemented numerous property and catchment scale landscape rehydration projects with regional partners across Australia that cover a range of farming enterprise and environmental outcomes. These operations in conjunction with research findings from the Mulloon Rehydration Initiative research site are providing robust evidence on the efficacy of the approach. In addition, NSW scale modelling currently in progress will provide an evaluation of the cost benefit of landscape rehydration actions.
The Mulloon Rehydration Initiative (MRI) is jointly funded through the Mulloon Institute and the Australian Government’s National Landcape Program and is supported by the NSW Government’s Environmental Trust.
Soil pH affects everything—from plant growth to stock health. But many farmers don’t realise how dramatic the impacts are… or how to test for it properly. In this episode, we dive into the fundamentals of soil pH, how it works, and how to measure it right on your farm.

In Australia and around the world, estimating carbon in soil is difficult and expensive. Measurement is considered too variable and costly and modelling is often found to be difficult to calibrate and has a large variance. Philip Mulvey joins HydroTerra's Richard Campbell to discuss soil carbon farming and the associated current challenges and progress.
