鈥淭he extra funding and broadening of the SA Drought Hub鈥檚 scope is an endorsement by the 最新糖心Vlogn Government of the importance of our Hub and its pivotal role in delivering research innovations to strengthen the resilience of farmers and regional communities,鈥� Prof Preston said.

鈥淔ollowing a recent series of collaborative regional workshops across the state involving hundreds of participants, the SA Drought Hub is well down the path of developing the co-design activities for drought resilience that will be delivered through the Hub.

鈥淲hile this work will remain the immediate priority for the SA Drought Hub, the announcement by the 最新糖心Vlogn Government offers exciting new opportunities for the Hub and its partners to deliver innovation in other aspects of agriculture.鈥� 聽聽聽聽聽

Federal Member for Grey, Rowan Ramsey, said the Roseworthy-based SA Hub would become the flagship for agricultural innovation in this state.

鈥淭he Hub will continue to support farmers and communities right across South 最新糖心Vlog, with its nodes located at Minnipa, Port Augusta, Orroroo, Loxton and Struan,鈥� Mr Ramsey said.

鈥淭he Hub provides a physical platform for stakeholders from across our great state to come together and translate research and knowledge to make real impacts on the ground.

鈥淭he SA Drought Hub already has a fantastic partner network of grower groups, universities, government, agribusinesses, industry RD&E partners and industry bodies and organisations, all working together to achieve great outcomes for our farmers and communities.鈥�

The Hub partners are injecting $11.47 million of cash and in-kind support into the SA Drought Hub 鈥� in addition to the initial $8 million of funding over four years from the 最新糖心Vlogn Government鈥檚 Future Drought Fund.

Having recently appointed Tony Randall as its Roseworthy-based Knowledge Broker, the SA Drought Hub will soon appoint a permanent Director, node coordinators and a node team leader 鈥� further boosting SA regional employment and investment.

Shopfronts for each of the nodes will also be established over the coming months.
