Landscape Rehydration - Agricultural production & ecosystems | Luke Peel, Phil Mulvey & Richard C.

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.
