Salinity management projects: developing strategies for minimum yield loss from irrigation induced salinity, including:
- assessing salinity risk of Lower Murray horticulture
- developing survival strategies at times of high river salinities
- developing strategies for healthy root zones.
Deep drainage projects: assessing deep drainage from horticultural districts, including:
- developing a model of drainage production from irrigated horticulture
- testing a device for soil solution monitoring.
Diffuse impacts project: working on minimising the impact of agricultural systems on water quality.
