Profitable grazing systems to manage drought in the Southern Rangelands
Update: 2024-06-11
Description
In this episode, we talk with Brad Plunkett and Christophe D’Abbadie about profitable and drought-resilient grazing systems for the Southern Rangelands.
Brad and Christophe, both economists at the Department of Primary Industries and Regional Development (DPIRD), have conducted extensive research on profitable and sustainable rangeland management systems in Western Australia and the Northern Territory.
Their work is particularly notable for its focus on strategies that allow pastoralists to manage consecutive drought years effectively.
This episode is brought to you by the South-West WA Drought Resilience Adoption and Innovation Hub and is hosted by Shannon Beattie.
