Land and Water Australia

Land and Water Australia was a government agency established to support sustainable management of Australia’s land, water, and natural resources. It funded research, projects, and programs aimed at improving environmental health, agricultural productivity, and water use efficiency. By promoting science-based solutions, it sought to ensure long-term ecological sustainability while benefiting industries and communities. The agency played a key role in coordinating efforts across sectors to address environmental challenges, such as drought, land degradation, and water scarcity. It was active until 2009, when its functions were integrated into other government programs focused on environmental and resource management.
