Drought Resilience Adoption and Innovation Hubs (Hubs). The Hubs have a mission to deliver drought resilience research, development, extension, adoption, and commercialisation support responsive to the needs, priorities, and opportunities of Australia’s key agricultural and climatic zones.
The role of the Advisory Committee is to provide advice on the Hubs’ strategic objectives and program delivery and implementation to the Minister for Agriculture, Fisheries and Forestry; the Department of Agriculture, Fisheries and Forestry; and the Hubs. This will ensure the regionally focused Hubs are well placed to deliver drought resilience outcomes and remain connected to national priorities.
