Electro-chloronation is (maybe??) a new method to test on #smartdams to improve water quality, great to work with @FBG_Jerramungup @CWSS_UWA @UWAresearch and a big shout out to @watercorpwa

We are busy planning our 2024 Spring Field Day, being held in Jacup. More information to follow in the upcoming weeks. Until then, put September 2nd in your diary!

Interested in the use of low-production and salinity-prone land for productive livestock systems? @HayleyCNorman is joining us in Gairdner to talk all things saltland systems with a focus on drought resilience and the use of legumes. fbg.org.au/field-walk-ana…

With accessible hydrologists few and far between these days, you don't want to miss this opportunity to chat groundwater & salinity in our Shire with John Simons (DPIRD). Members, your input fuels our growth, so stick around for our AGM after. RSVP: fbg.org.au/2023-agm-socia…

A snapshot of our demonstration site in Gairdner; part of a CSIRO and DPIRD-led Future Drought Fund project. Looking forward to seeing how the legumes, salt-tolerant perennials, and native fodder shrubs (Anameka) interact to produce a drought-resilient feedbase!

Nice full #smartdam ⁦@FBG_Jerramungup⁩ ⁦@CWSS_UWA⁩ and trial floating cover. Fully instrumented, now to measure the actual evaporation!!

#smartdams site in Jacup holding up well in today’s wild weather!! Hopefully a sign that these second hand CBH tarps could be a durable option for lining more dam catchments!
