Take off the blinkers to restore rangelands

摘要

West Australian beef producer Ben Forsyth has returned from a three-month Nuffield Scholarship tour with ideas to remedy soil degrading problems on rangelands properties, including on his own - Three Rivers Station, near Meekatharra. Forsyth's Nuffield Scholarship, sponsored through the Lady Southey Scholarship program supported by the Sidney Myer Fund, allowed him to visit Namibia, South Africa, the US and Argentina to investigate strategies for rehabilitation and regeneration in semi-arid environments.
