Across Australia the water cycle is broken. Extreme events, hot days, floods, droughts have increased. The pattern and nature of rainfall has changed. Particularly of the winter rain. What has caused this change, and it is not Greenhouse Gases, it is how water is held on the land which causes the loss of the small or local water cycle. This directly relates to how we have managed agricultural land in the last 30 years. The science of landscape hydration and the process of reversal is discussed. Particularly attention will be paid to the process of the impact of biology on the intensity and amount of rain.
Landscape rehydration has occurred both here and around the world. Lessons from these examples are presented with particularly regard to their biogeomorphological impact on hydration.
This webinar brings together scientists, innovators, and farmers to explore how multispecies pasture cropping and the SOILKEE System can build soil health, improve pasture performance, reduce seasonal feed gaps, and support resilient dryland grazing systems, particularly in cold-season conditions.

What is the link between farming with Multi Species and resurrecting the damaged carbon and water cycles. Are farmers in control of their changing climate? Is regeneration the answer? Is Carbon really the issue or is it bare ground and clearing land? Are we on the brink of salvation?

Most degraded farms don’t need more inputs — they need a better starting point. This is how you actually begin rebuilding soil, water, and productivity.
