Drought has significant impact on the wellbeing of people and communities across Tropical North Queensland.
Drought affects all industries but particularly Tropical North Queensland agriculture industries including beef, sugar, vegetable, dairy, citrus and tropical fruit.
The Australian Government is contributing $8 million over 4 years through the Future Drought Fund. Hub partners are providing co-contributions of $18.5 million over 4 years.
Through the Hub, farmers, Indigenous landholders, communities, researchers and business have come together and co-designed approaches and solutions for drought resilience in Tropical North Queensland.

We have established a platform to capture and map the issues that affect farming and agricultural industries directly from landholders.
Problem submissions can range from very individualised circumstances to broader, industry-relevant challenges.
Join our Producer Group for Beef businesses and discover the power of data-driven decision-making.
We are looking for producers in the CAPE YORK and GULF SAVANNAH regions who want to learn how data-driven decision-making can lead to better outcomes, more informed strategies and improved overall performance.
We are developing educational materials to help support Australian producers, farmers and land managers understand the Environmental, Social and Governance (ESG) framework.
ESG is a framework that can help producers to address sustainability issues, enhance sustainability performance, increase resilience, reduce risks and create opportunities.

We acknowledge the Australian Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples as the first inhabitants of this country and pay our respects to the Traditional Owners and Elders, past and present, of the land on which we stand today, the Djabugay (pronounced Jap-ur-kai), Yirrganydji (pronounced Irri-kan-dji) and the Gimuy Yidinji (pronounced Goom-eye Yidinji) people (and all other country/people joining us today).
In the spirit of reconciliation, we also acknowledge the valuable contribution that Australian Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples continue to make to James Cook University and the broader community.
