The Northern Hub is pleased to support the upcoming “Applying Climate Knowledge to Increase Drought Resilience” workshop. This event, hosted by the Northern Australia Climate Program, is specifically designed for producers in the Victoria River District, focusing on practical aspects of climate literacy for improved grazing land management.

The workshop, led by Emily Hinds and Dr. Andrew Marshall, will delve into understanding climate drivers and the interpretation of seasonal forecasts. This knowledge is important for making informed decisions in herd and pasture management, especially in the context of increasing drought resilience. The sessions aim to provide a solid foundation in climate science fundamentals, alongside practical applications that can be integrated into agricultural practices.

Held at the Top Springs Hotel, the event is not only a day of learning but also an opportunity for attendees to engage with peers and experts in the field. It’s an occasion to share experiences, challenges, and solutions related to climate adaptation and drought management strategies.

This workshop is part of a broader effort to empower producers with the knowledge and tools needed to navigate the complexities of climate variability. By understanding and applying climate forecasts, producers can better plan and manage resources, ultimately contributing to the sustainability and resilience of their operations.

We encourage all interested individuals to participate in this workshop. It’s an investment in your professional development and a step towards ensuring the long-term viability of your agricultural practices in the face of changing climate conditions.
