What we do
Focusing on creating more resilient, productive and profitable landscapes where agriculture and the environment are working in unison.
Mulloon Institute is internationally acclaimed for its pioneering research in landscape rehydration and restoration. In 2016, our Mulloon Rehydration Initiative was recognised by the United Nations as one of five global model case studies for sustainable, productive farming. We conduct scientific baseline surveys and ongoing monitoring to measure the Initiative’s impact on Mulloon Creek and the surrounding catchment.

Mulloon Rehydration
Initiative
The Mulloon Rehydration Initiative is a long-term, catchment-wide project. This unique and collaborative community project is the only one of its kind in Australia and highlights the social nature of catchment scale projects, with a wide range of stakeholders involved.

University Partners
We partner with leading global universities in agricultural research, regenerative land management, and innovation. Our scientists, hydrologists, and researchers collaborate with farmers and stakeholders on cutting-edge rehydration and restoration projects nationwide, supported by our Science Advisory Council. At Mulloon Creek Natural Farms, we refine research, demonstrate regenerative agriculture methods, conduct trials, and implement landscape rehydration.
