Soil and landscapes
Australia's soils and landscapes are one of our most valuable assets, critical to food production, sustainable agriculture and our health. Our research spans national and international scales to inform land use planning, policy options and natural resource assessment.
We are trialling new land-use systems, developing innovative farm and industry management practices and improving the efficiency of resource use, including soil, water and fertiliser. Our research encompasses both the biophysical elements of agricultural landscapes and the social, institutional and economic structures.
