Mulloon Institute – Catchment Rehydration Selection Tool (CReST)
The CReST model is designed to prioritise catchments across NSW, offering high-level guidance for selecting agricultural areas for potential landscape rehydration infrastructure and practices at the catchment scale.
Focusing on the suitability of infrastructure within watercourses (such as leaky weirs) and riparian zones (such as revegetation), the CReST model highlights the potential agricultural and environmental benefits of these rehydration practices.
CReST has been developed in partnership with HydroTerra, with valuable input from JB Pacific (UK).

we should acknowledge the pioneering efforts of India where the idea started
Andrew Millison would be interested in these projects. He has many videos that discuss the techniques used in these projects.
Do you have a before-after video building on the original ABC film from 8 years ago?
It's funny, these concepts are obvious to any kid who plays in the mud puddles and streams and yet advanced societies fail to see it. Greed is a power motivator.
I love good water management. Kinda scary idea in australia, I imagine all sorts of monsters being drawn to the water
An amazing organization, mission, tool, and collection of human beings. Critical work that will yield impact across countless landscapes and communities. Thank you for all of your efforts, individual and collective. 💚💙🌏🐭🙏✌
No I'm not like most people. I'm not at all concerned. I remember when I was young I was told about global dimming due to an excess of CO2 in the atmosphere. This was going to bring on a mini ice age. I jumped up and down warning all who would listen of the coming danger. It didn't happen. Things went quiet for a few years and suddenly CO2 was again the bad guy but this time it was warming the planet. I believed that one too until 2003 until I came across a NASA webpage about the warming that had been noticed on Mars. The CO2 icecaps were melting earlier each season. I knew had been seeing warming and melting in our icecaps but this didn't add up. I finally came across the idea that sunspot cycles could be involved. Now this would affect both Earth and Mars so seems like a more likely reason. I started trying to find what CO2 levels had been in the past and found CO2 was around 6000ppm when the dinosaurs were around. This was the MOST LUSH period of earths history so contrary to public opinion, raised CO2 is beneficial to the planet, not harmful. A more recent discovery for me, is the fact that billions of tons of soil carbon has been lost from the soil and added to the atmosphere to the detriment of food production and to the environment. If we have a problem with CO2 and I doubt this, the loss of soil carbon has a WAY greater than fossil fuels have. Do we need to increase soil carbon? Yes of course. The soil needs this. Do we need to live in fear due to rising CO2? No way. Climate catastrophism is an unscientific religion. More and more papers are being published to back this up.
Why make this so technical, to keep their jobs they created, without water you are dead. I have an impression that this project has become a typical government dead end. Missing the point of the idea.
Hey there, thanks for commenting. Mulloon Institute is an internationally recognised not-for-profit monitoring, research, education and consulting organisation. Feel free to explore our website so you don't miss the point of our work. themullooninstitute.org/
Would making the channel along the contour line not contribute to raising the saline water table?
Cool 🎉🎉🎉
This is excellent
Lots of artificial lakes should be made in Australia and plant trees around it in the desert,meby use water trucks.
First U.N should ban logging across the world with no excuses, double standards or leniency, no tree may be felled for any damn reason be it construction, agriculture, medicine etc.
I see only good outcomes from these initiatives. They are based on foresight and intelligent data gathering. It's also great to see the local landowners coming together to save and rejuvenate the earth.
On the eastern side of the great Dividing range twas a different story😢
Trees on hilltops and sides slow down rainwater flow downhill minimising erotion. Peter Andrews promoted "leaky weirs" several decades ago. Anthing that slows down the water runoff a assists water retention on the driest inhabitated continent must be considered. Also Australia's water should be Australia's water, Not owned by some Multinational Corporations !
I didn't hear mention of it, but I just finished watching a short video on how beavers have been rehomed to produce significant positive changes to ecosystems that were virtually dry when they arrived. Have these been tried in the AU?
We're not going to introduce more foreign species into our ecosystem after previous attempts...
We don't have beavers in Australia!
@@MulloonInstitute Would it be against the rules to rehome some beaver from a group that works well in the hot n dry, to test in the AU? They have worked very well in the UK n US, to conserve water and promote wildlife, in the areas they've been introduced into. We're up against looming climate crises everywhere, but perhaps you could petition your government to relax the rules on beaver importation?
I have seen first hand the changes we humans make on water courses and then caused regeneration in those water courses using simple tecniques like leaky weirs...people gotto stop thinking fast flow is good flow or that dredging water courses will improve grazing...it really doesnt.
wow

As someone who has followed the work of Pioneering visionaries like Tony Coote and many other’s . The inspirational legacy that they give a future generation of the young and those with a knowledge of the adversity that Mother Nature has to throw at us in these challenging & uncertain times. The adage that prevention is better than cure, certainly is true in rugged and desolate environment like Australia 🇦🇺 And any time that carbon sequestration can be added to the infrastructure of our soil’s ability to store & retain either massive amounts of moisture, or just enough for next season crop.
He lost me, and all credibility, at “white settler” (3:07).
Then perhaps you need to study the history of agriculture and how damaging it is in the landscape. Yes the aboriginals did their fair share of damage but that doesn't change the FACT that whites had very very destructive management practices that precipitated these problems being dealt with
We are all behind you guys. EVERY farmer should be following these ancient practices , ignore the evil Grubbyment and KEEP their farms from the clutches of EVILGATES👍🙏🇦🇺💕
You lose credibility posting videos like this.
Greetings from the LooseNatural farm in Andalusia Spain where we currently live through a drought. Thank you for sharing this video
I wish the people that need to see this will actually see it, and understand it.
We need a great "people person" to get everyone on board with the right things to do. Caring for the land is right. But it's so hard to convince people how it will actually benefit them. Public relations are incredibly important. Surely everyone would want to retain water better, but many people have their own mental blocks to get through first.
You didn't even mention Peter andrews?
Can you please do a video on dealing with riverbank erosion. We have 4 m vertical cliffs on outside bends and are losing 30 year old trees, it doesn’t help that the river is set up more like a drainage channel, but what techniques would you use to deflect current at certain points? It is on the Yarra River in Vic and you would be welcome to use it as a test site.
Thanks for your question, please feel free to contact info@themullooninstitute.org if you'd like to address a specific site problem in your area. Also, keep an eye on the NEWS page on our website, as we send out info when videos and case studies are updated.
Really enjoy these presentations. This might not be the thread, but how do you combat river erosion, on the outward bends we have some 4 m vertical cliffs, are there any videos or techniques on dealing with this sort of erosion please?
Plant willow rods and fascine mats of prolific vegetation
Having now watched several vids on the Mullon Institute i wonder why the name PETER ANDREWS has been missing from the films. The late Tony Coote dragged Peter to Mullon Creek to start the ball rolling, having been ignored for some 40 years by government etc this proved to be a blessing. Although not always the diplomat, if we had been treated like him neither would we. Peters water sequence adaptation is now being practiced across the world, a shame that he now appears to get little credit for a lifetimes work. I am sure Tony would not have allowed this to happen. Do get something done about it!
Hi Alan, thanks for your interest in our work. Peter Andrews has now established the TALS Institute and works closely with his son Stuart Andrews and the team at Tarwyn Park Training. We remain admirers of Peter’s work and acknowledge his significant contribution to landscape repair work in Australia.
I would love to see follow-ups!
All updates are added to the NEWS page of our website as they come to hand. Thanks for following.

PLEASE don't use plastic egg cartons.
I agree chop a 25 year old tree down use it for a week or two and throw it in to land fill to cover eggs don't use a reusable plastic cover that could stay in service for 25 years like a plastic milk crate buy just retuning them ?and then be recycled into something else?
@@Ifyouarehurtnointentwasapplied It's a fairytale that much plastic is being recycled. It's too damn cheap to create. Perhaps ask customers to bring their own containers? Send them in firmer containers that they can return for cash off?
I've started thinking that plastic is made from petroleum which is just laying on layers of rock. If we turn that into plastic and let it rot for thousands of years in a deep hole somewhere. That might be the better solution than chopping down trees. A better solution at least in our current situation, before we invent so something better, like one made out of a waste product.
Because it's dry - nailed it.
Only one word missing. Farming is about adapting to the local *ecosystem.* Once that concept takes root holistic responses are more readily available. As for Australia, Dr. Jehne noted that desertifying land creates heat vortices that repel rain clouds, hence a plan to roll inland from the rainwater source (the coast) needs to underline any grand plan. From Regen Ag's 5 basic principles: Always a living root, armour (humus), biodiversity, reduced tillage and animal impact.
This is very encouraging.
Outstanding!
One of the most important topics in the world....wish it would get 145,000 views instead of 145.
Disappointing after two Australian Primeminister's expressed interest!
Incredible work. Keep the vids coming
❤❤ and in my backyard #QLDER
I’ve been following this ever since Peter Andrews was on the Burkes Back Yard Show and have read his book “Back From the Brink”. The ABC’s Australian Story show had helped enormously with bringing to light the brilliance and simplicity of how Peter’s knowledge can help rehabilitate environments not only in Australia. All I can say is Thank You.
Beavers do this naturally.
Not in Australia! But woody debris forms partials dams all on their own if you just let trees grow and eventually fall
