Funded Activity Summary

Sustaining Australia's sheep industry under climate change: modelling Australia's sheep flock response to climatic and economic constraints. This project aims to provide a quantitative assessment of the impact of climate change and economic conditions on the Australian sheep industry. This will be achieved by constructing a robust dynamic model of the Australian sheep flock capable of integrating biophysical and economic constraints across regional and national scales. Using historical and projected biophysical and economic inputs it will enhance the capacity of the Australian sheep industry for strategic planning in the face of projected climate change. This capacity is being actively sought by the peak sheep industry bodies in conjunction with our industry partner the Bureau of Rural Sciences.
