  • Connections For Resilience: Sharing Land Management Knowledge Between Farmers And Politicians

This paper describes the work of the Mulloon Institute (TMI), its landmark project — the Mulloon Rehydration Initiative (MRI)— and explores the gap between the knowledge developed and held by Australian farmers and politicians and their officers responsible for developing policy.
