More than 88% of Queensland's land is used for primary production. This means how we manage agriculture is intertwined with how we manage our environment. Queensland's regional NRM organisations work on the ground with primary producers and industry groups to deliver knowledge, resources and support where it's needed most. By working together to improve land condition, we're able to mitigate against environmental degradation, enhance biodiversity and water quality outcome and improve carbon sequestration while ensuring food security and a healthy economy.

🌊💧 The Salty Side of Industry 💧🌊 Ever wondered how saltwater plays a role in industrial processes? 🌎💭In our latest "Water Use Wednesday," we're diving deep into the world of industrial saltwater withdrawal. While freshwater gets all the attention, there's a massive, untapped potential in the 97% of water that's saline. 🌐 But using saltwater comes with its own challenges - corrosion, scaling, and environmental concerns, to name a few. What if we could unlock saltwater's potential for sustainable industrial use? Let's explore the hurdles and possibilities together! 💡 🔗 Click the link to read more about how industries are navigating the balance between saltwater usage and sustainability: https://lnkd.in/gZa2z3M3 Let’s ride the wave of innovation together! 🌊🚀 #WaterUseWednesday #SustainableWater #IndustrialInnovation #WaterManagement #LinkedInBlog

Wondering why we focus so heavily on worm composting? Vermicomposting, also known as worm composting, is an accessible waste reduction effort thanks to its ability to occur in an indoor, contained environment (like an upcycled 5-gallon bucket), minimal space required (no backyard or HOA approval required), and small investment (a cup of worms). We love vermicomposting as an educational tool as it offers hands-on learning about decomposition, soil health, and environmental stewardship - all working together towards a cleaner soil and water system.

In the latest issue of Currents, we focus on Harvest Water—a massive water recycling project that is creating a blueprint for sustainable water management and collaboration in agriculture. We also examine the far-reaching implications of the EPA's newly passed PFAS National Primary Drinking Water Regulation, explore the advantages of rapid small-scale column tests (RSSCT) for evaluating PFAS treatment efficacy, and share an inspiring stream restoration project in Austin, TX. Join us in exploring the ways we’re harvesting water for a resilient tomorrow—read the full issue here: https://ow.ly/JH3R50Tkqp7

Effective land management isn’t just about conserving soil or optimizing yields; it’s about creating systems that balance productivity, environmental health, and community resilience. From agroforestry initiatives to regenerative agriculture, these practices help mitigate climate change, restore biodiversity, and ensure food security for future generations. Here’s why this matters for rural development: ✅ Economic Empowerment: Sustainable practices can improve yields and diversify incomes, providing farmers with greater financial stability. ✅ Environmental Protection: Practices like agroforestry preserve water resources, and reduce emissions. ✅ Community Resilience: Healthy lands lead to stronger, more food-secure communities that are better equipped to withstand shocks like droughts or market disruptions.
