How can farmers be better equipped to face long periods of drought? Australian agronomists are trying hard to find answers to this troubling but increasingly important question.

A recent study conducted by leading medical journal The Lancet has found 1.24 million Indians died from air pollution last year, accounting for 12.5% of all deaths. Agricultural stubble burning was described as a major source of the toxic smog, which spikes every October and November as farmers clear their land to plant new crops. We've been funding research looking at how a solution to the stubble burning—The Happy Seeder— can be further rolled-out to smallholder farmers. read more

With a long civil war behind it, Mozambique is growing fast. However, the country remains one of the least developed in the world, with over half its population still living on or below the poverty line. Irrigation is vital for food security, so we brought together teams of scientists to work with local experts to develop better systems and introduce soil moisture meters helping farmers irrigate more efficiently and grow more food. Tonight on SBS Food at 8:30pm, travel with Aussie Cook Paul West as he visits the project and learns to cook like a local on the final episode of 'The Good Cooks'. read more
