<br><font size=1 color=#006600 face="Arial">Hello All,</font>
<br><font size=1 color=#006600 face="Arial">I have just attended the DPI
and Shepparton Irrigation Region Implementation Committee Research Reporting
Day focussed on a range of projects focussed on irrigation. There
are some new resources, tools, case studies and information online that
may be useful for you and your students. More will come available
over coming months so I will endeavour to let you know when and where!</font>
<br>
<br><font size=1 color=#006600 face="Arial">I attended the workshop because
I am doing some curriculum writing (part time over next four months) for
the Irrigation Futures Project - very exciting and interesting project
that used scenario planning to look at the current irrigation practices
and the future, under various scenarios. The curriculum project is a partnership
with LandLearn so you will hear more about it through the usual LandLearn
channels. </font>
