Themes
These themes have a dual goal of informing policy and decision making, and building capacity among early-career researchers and academics.
Cross-cutting, novel and comprehensive research is being produced in the following broad areas:
- Agriculture-environment-health nexus
- Water-energy-food nexus
- Climate variability and change and resilience
- Early warning systems (Big data)
These overarching, inter/trans/multidisciplinary themes are underpinned by robust work being done within the following focused pillars of research:
- Agricultural water management
- Seed Knowledge and systems
- Breeding and crop improvement
- Crop physiology
- Crop-climate modelling
- GIS and remote sensing
- Primary production, farming and cropping systems
- Post-harvest handling and storage
- Processing and product development
