About the SLMACC Freshwater Mitigation Programme
The SLMACC Freshwater mitigation Programme supports field trials of existing farm technologies and practices which protect waterways and wetlands by reducing nutrient run-off and leaching. It aims to produce scientific data that can be incorporated into decision-support tools. This will help farmers and growers use their land more sustainably, meet environmental targets, and remain prosperous.
The programme was allocated $16 million over 4 years to fund scientific projects.
The programme is now fully committed, and no further funding rounds are expected at this time.
