    Sustainability in a macadamia orchard.

    'Low Input Sustainable Agriculture' (LISA) focuses on holistic farming practices that prioritise soil health to promote healthy plant growth. By adopting this approach, and increasing biodiversity with cover crops, such as sunflowers and hemp, farmers can create significant benefits for the ecosystem. In this episode, self-proclaimed regenerative farmer and macadamia grower, Ross Arnett, explains his approach to LISA, and shares the simple, yet effective, practices he has implemented into his orchard in New South Wales. Access episode webpage: https://www.nutsforlife.com.au/resource/episode-47-sustainability-in-a-macadamia-orchard/     About today’s guest Ross Arnett is a macadamia grower from northern New South Wales. His farm - Malua – on the Alstonville Plateau has been in his family since 1872, and features a 10-hectare macadamia orchard.

Drawing on guidance from mentors, he has continually refined his approach to low input sustainable agriculture, to minimise off-farm inputs and reduce his carbon footprint.

    Sustainability practices in an Australian almond orchard

    Whole orchard recycling (WOR) is a concept that originated in California, whereby old orchard trees are ground, chipped and turned back into the soil before new almond trees are planted. Despite some initial scepticism, results in the US have been overwhelmingly positive, including greater yield, increased water holding capacity, and improved soil health.  But how sustainable and effective is this practice in the Australian context? In this episode, long-time Australian almond grower, Neale Bennett, reveals how he got interested in WOR, and shares the results of a trial currently underway at his orchard in the sandy Sunraysia region of Victoria.  Access episode webpage:  https://www.nutsforlife.com.au/resource/episode-46-sustainability-in-an-australian-almond-orchard/  About today’s guest Neale Bennett has worked in the horticulture field for 40 years. A fourth-generation horticulturist, he is still farming the same land that was cleared by his ancestors in the early 1900s in Merbein, just outside Mildura in Victoria. In 1992, he started converting the 42-acre family property from vines (dried fruit) to almonds, which was completed by 2005.  Neale is a current member of the Almond Board of Australia as one of two Sunraysia representatives. He also served as the Board’s Chair for six years.  Supporting resources Almond Board of Australia: Almond orchard recycling trial a sustainability first https://almondboard.org.au/almond-orchard-recycling-trial-a-sustainability-first/?v=6cc98ba2045f Orchard recycling improves climate change adaptation and mitigation potential of almond production systems https://journals.plos.org/plosone/article?id=10.1371/journal.pone.0229588  Nuts for Life Sustainability Hub https://www.nutsforlife.com.au/sustainability/ Sign up to NutENews Follow us on Instagram, Twitter, Facebook and LinkedIn Credits: Host - Belinda Neville Contact us: admin@nutsforlife.com.au

    Nut allergy prevention and management - The research

    Peanut and tree nut allergies affect millions worldwide, and Australia is no exception. In fact, Australia has one of the highest allergy rates globally. Allergy symptoms can vary from mild itching and sneezing to anaphylaxis - the most severe reaction where the immune system overreacts, potentially leading to death. Until now, the only treatment has been strict avoidance. But new research suggests that early exposure to nuts could be the key to prevention. Dr Vicki McWilliam discusses the theories behind Australia's high allergy rates and the ways to help prevent allergies from developing. She then expertly explains significant research in the field, including trials focused on treatments and potential cures for peanut allergies. Access episode webpage: https://www.nutsforlife.com.au/resource/episode-45-nut-allergy-prevention-management-the-research/  About today’s guest Dr Vicki McWilliam is a Clinician-Scientist Fellow at the Murdoch Children's Research Institute, a Senior Dietitian at the Royal Children's Hospital and a Senior Research Fellow in the Department of Paediatrics at the University of Melbourne.
