From 2006 to 2008, the Monash University Accident Research Centre, in conjunction with the Office of Road Safety and Department of Main Roads in Western Australia, attempted to gain the support of a Local Government Area in W.A. to implement a demonstration trial of lower speed limits, based on a new Harm Reduction approach. Attempts to gain the support made over these three years included enli...

The biophysical environment is an important determinant of land degradation in both commercial and communal land tenure systems in South Africa. According to a recent study on the status of land degradation, approximately 25% of the total land cover in South Africa is degraded. Several technologies exist to restore the soil and vegetation degraded areas in natural pastures. To improve the produ...

Tedera is a forage legume that can provide out-of-season green feed in Mediterranean climates. To date, growers have had no comprehensive soil nutrition guidelines to optimise tedera production. We undertook field and glasshouse studies understand tedera’s macronutrient requirements. Three experiments were sown with cv. Lanza® at Cunderdin, Dandaragan Springs Western Australia. These evaluated ...
