Farmers in Flux

It’s funny how time gets away from you. This year I took the big leap to study full-time Honours in Ecology at UNE, and while I am loving every minute of it, my brain is too full of measuring pasture groundcover and landscape function to make space for anything else. And so, despite my best intentions I am yet to publish my farmer stories for ‘Farmers in Flux’.

The Grazing Game

Imogen Semmler and Judi Earl have cooked up something fabulous: The Grazing Game. How do you maintain a healthy ecosystem in your paddocks, weather drought, withstand market fluctuations and other curve balls, while making a living from keeping livestock? Imogen got Cementa punters to wear their strategy hats last November at the first trial of the Game.

Humus: its Chemical, Physical and Biological properties that are essential for life

Our deepest dive yet into the science of humus with Glenn Morris. The key message remains: the complexity of nature may continue to elude full scientific scrutiny, but we know enough to respect it and support its regeneration.

Dirt → soil → earth: the art of building life.

Dirt → soil → earth: the art of building life.

KSCA member Lucas Ihlein was recently invited to contribute a short essay about soil for Kaldor Public Art Projects. The essay has been published in an education resource for school students about artist Asad Rasa, who created a 300 tonne soil installation in Sydney's Carriageworks in May 2019..

When the folks at Lyttleton Atelier approached us with the idea of mounting an exhibition of works in progress from the Artist Farmer Scientist project in their window gallery, we very promptly and enthusiastically said yes please.
