Projects

By enhancing collaboration and knowledge sharing, the project aims to lay the groundwork for effective adaptation strategies in the face of evolving water availability conditions.

This project aims to model the future irrigation needs of key crops in the Murray–Darling Basin under various climate change scenarios, which will help provide growers insights into whether they can supply their crops’ irrigation requirements to underwrite this investment.

This project will undertake foundational activities to improve insight into the nature and scale of the opportunity associated with brackish groundwater, identify pathways to enable diversification of irrigated water sources, and assess any potential negative consequences and associated mitigating measures.

Climate change is projected to decrease river flows by 20% in the Murray–Darling Basin; however, there is uncertainty in how this will unfold. The project will assess potential changes in water supply and demand, helping water users to make informed decisions.
