Cropping Resilience
Supporting crop growers to build soil health and drought resilience
We’re working with growers and on-ground regional partners around the country to build soil health and drought resilience.
Read on to find out more and get involved. You can get support to implement new practices by reading our practice guides and case studies, attend one of our field days, webinars, or online mentoring sessions, join a farmer discussion group, or get inspired by listening to our podcasts featuring croppers and specialists on a wide range of soil and regeneration topics.
