We are very excited and grateful to receive 4 years of funding from our generous donor to expand the current Landscape Rehydration research! Looking forward working with this great team! @SiaSydney @Sydney_Science @docSab @amandagraafhot1 @ellagambrill01 @vanessapino @guyroth11

We enjoyed having you in Narrabri! We got a lot of work done between all of us! 💪💪Great weather and good truck bogging, a real intro into Landscape Rehydration!

[Eliana Nervi @hablacetaceo]

Very excited to join this increíble team at fieldtrip and get to learn a lot from their work in Landscape Rehydration Project in Narrabri, NSW in The UnIversity of Sydney experimental station. Thank you @vanessapino @wv2017, Rajitha, Ella and Amanda for sharing this with us!

[Land_rehydrate_llara @land_hydro]

Nice house when you can find one! Found the missing energiser was happily occupied 👍🏻

[Mulloon Institute @MulloonInst]

Recommendations made by the Mulloon Institute for regulatory reform to NSW planning legislation for landscape rehydration works, have been accepted and gazetted by the NSW Government’s Department of Planning this week!

This looks really interesting!

[NSW Climate and Digital Agriculture @DPI_DigitalAg]

Only 1 week to go.
Join us to chat and see landscape rehabilitation in the rangelands.

We're demonstrating on farm:

1. Landscape modifications (deep ripping, ponding, diversion banks) to increase water infiltration.

Gearing up for the Narrabri Field Day. Exciting! @vanessapino @amandagraafhot1 @pbinarrabri @SiaSydney @SydneySOLES @Sydney_Science

Spillways spilling on recently repaired & beefed up contours 👍🏻@wv2017 @vanessapino @docSab @SiaSydney @SydneySOLES @SustainSydney @pbinarrabri

[Land_rehydrate_llara @land_hydro]

Cattle on the contours @ USyd Llara! Well, 210 weaners actually where after 96 hours on 6.67 ha the variegated thistle was nicely polished off. @wv2017 @vanessapino @docSab @SiaSydney @SydneySOLES @pbinarrabri

Welcoming @TheMulloonInst to Urandangie, #Guyra for a field day on #LandscapeRehydration Fundamentals. Peter Hazell is kicking off with his presentation in the woolshed. @llsnsw @ARC2350

[Land_rehydrate_llara @land_hydro]

Landscape #rehydration & erosion mitigated. Bankless contours finished Wed, infiltrating & spreading 40mm rainfall from 88ha cropping drainage before the weekend 👍🏻Part 1 done! 😎 @wv2017 @vanessapino @SiaSydney @SydneySOLES @pbinarrabri @Sydney_Science

@NSWDPI_AgWater Yes indeed. Brown Goshawks (aka "chicken hawks" because of their very yellow legs) often follow tractors that flush out prey. I must have slashed over the snake that was promptly getting recycled! Have had a flock of 2-300 following a 12m cultivation rig at Burren Junction.

[Land_rehydrate_llara @land_hydro]

Slashing access paths & the circle of life. Of the thousands of hours in a tractor, this is was a first.

Landscape Rehydro Proj caught a slither of a break in the weather at "Llara" farm #USYD Narrabri to form up 3 contours on the sandy loams (vertisols still very soggy). @wv2017 @vanessapino @SiaSydney @SydneySOLES

[Vanessa Pino @vanessapino]

Soil sampling campaign still going at Llara's farm #USYD. Monitoring #bulkdensity and #totalcarbon for @land_hydro experiments. Ella and Will amazing team 👏🏾! @wv2017 @amandagraafhot1

@KamilAy91590628 @waldaevan What's a shuttle worth these days? Here's a couple between Baan Baa & Boggabri NSW from last week 😱

[Vanessa Pino @vanessapino]

Back in the field for monitoring soil decomposition with @TeaBagIndex for @land_hydro project at Llara's farm. Amazing teamwork!

Belated photo from our last activity. Installing teabags to monitor microbial activity. Cutting grass for dry matter estimates. Great views of Mt Kaputar @vanessapino, @amandagraafhot1 and Will. #Llara @SiaSydney @SydneySOLES @pbinarrabri

One happy hydrologist finding fluctuations in the groundwater data @pbinarrabri

Mapping in 32 soil moisture probes, GPS is a wonderful thing. Note the pig and heifer proof fencing😁 @SiaSydney @SydneySOLES @wv2017 @vanessapino
