    Completed Projects

    2002-2007 Land Water & Wool Northern Tablelands Project

    Funds: TBC

    Source: Land Water & Wool, a partnership between Australian Wool Innovation and Land & Water Australia.

    This project saw us partner with the University of New England in a five year project to conduct biodiversity research on New England wool producing properties, including research into the economics of healthy biodiverse properties. The project produced a range of case studies, testimonials and fact sheets. Links to these resources are shown below.
