Explore how integrated policy frameworks and Australia’s Climate-Smart Agriculture Program strengthen resilience, emissions reduction, and sustainable land management.
Climate-smart agriculture integrates resource efficiency, soil health, water stewardship, and circular livestock systems to strengthen food system resilience while reducing emissions and safeguarding long-term productivity.
Discover how agroforestry improves soil health, enhances biodiversity, sequesters carbon, and strengthens rural economies through climate-smart land management.
Simulation models support sustainable agriculture by reducing runoff, erosion, and nutrient losses while improving land and water management decisions.
The Sustainable Water-Food Nexus explores how circular-economy principles can strengthen two inseparable systems: the water people depend on and the food they produce and consume. It shows how resource efficiency, conservation and reuse can reduce pressure on water supplies while supporting more resilient agriculture and food systems. Contributors examine water-efficient production, nature-based solutions, nutrient and water recovery, energy use, urban agriculture and emerging technologies. The book also considers the investment, partnerships, policy and regulatory settings needed to move promising interventions beyond isolated projects. Combining practical cases with forward-looking analysis, the volume is designed for policymakers, practitioners, researchers and students seeking integrated responses to water scarcity, food security and environmental decline.
