- How Australia plans to green its Outback desert in Becoming a Global produce exporter Australia is the most deserted inhabited area on Earth. With 70% of the area occupied by a desert, the country’s demographics tell that it’s not a heaven for agriculture. The unpredictable rainfall in central Australia is unique compared to other drylands. Instead of agricultural seasons, the transforming rhythms of arid Australia are characterized by erratic bursts of productivity that break up protracted droughts.
Australia is now setting its eyes on regreening the outback for developing agriculture. The country aims on captivating ever-growing Asian market. The population in Asian countries is increasing boundlessly and there is an immense need for more food supplies. Australia is planning on making Outback arable to cash upon this opportunity to become one of the most important produce exporter in the world. As of today, Australia is not doing bad at all as almost 70% of Australian agricultural production being exported and the country exports more agricultural products than its imports. Australian agricultural exports were worth nearly $49 billion in 2018-19. Australia's top agricultural export destinations are China, Japan, the US, and the Republic of Korea. However, China continues to be Australia's leading agricultural product importer.
Australians are smart as they have been making infrastructural plans to enhance their agriculture since 1930s. Now they are turning one of their biggest disadvantage into an advantage i.e., flooding. Parts of outback South Australia have been devastated by flooding. But Australia planned to have a reservoir that could save all the flood water inlands so that it can be used for irrigation. However, they already had one but not in its best shape.
The Great Artesian Basin is Australia's largest groundwater basin and one of the most significant underground water sources on the entire planet. In fact, for much of inland Australia, it is the sole trustworthy source of fresh Water. More than 80 settlements in Queensland depend on the Basin's precious Water, which covers 1,203,920 square kilometers of land or around 65% of its total area. The Basin has been depleting for a long time, and it is a crucial source of Water for the locals. The water flow is also accompanied by low pressure and flow rates. So, to revive the whole system, a framework of dams was designed to bring Water from the North-Eastern parts of the continent to the center.
The plan sounds overwhelmingly ambitious, and science proved it certainly was. The plan was not feasible because there was an error in the initial calculation of evaporation rates. Scientists suggested that the evaporation levels would be intense, and the sizes of reservoirs would not be big enough to induce rainfall, so the project cost was much more than its benefits. However, a small project of the same category proved viable when demand for agricultural products in Asia increased immensely. So, the policymakers decided to establish a network of tunnels that would irrigate the southern part of the continent.
However, this project came at the cost of environmental hazards and disturbed the natural water flow. The government of Queensland has taken other steps to revive the basin. The first step was to ensure efficient channels for water usage, which involves managing water flow by rehabilitating or replacing bores, and replacing open bore drains with pipes, tanks, and troughs. Since 1989, the Queensland Government has also invested $81 million in programs to cap pipe stock and domestic bores. The expected uptake of innovative agricultural technologies will lead to many changes in how farms are managed and allow agricultural yields to stabilize or increase without adverse environmental impact and the conversion of additional non-agricultural land.
If these approaches are successful and can mitigate the negative consequences of climate change, this should also result in improved conservation of biodiversity. Australia for the past couple of decades has been thriving in agriculture and to maintain this competitive advantage the Australian agricultural industry must continue to think strategically and exhibit strong leadership to exceed $100 billion by 2030. Australia has actually carved out its planned for 2030 for becoming a leading produce exporter. It is projected that Australia will see record sales this year in both agriculture and cattle sector. A record grain harvest was produced last year as a result of the improved seasonal circumstances, and a bumper harvest is anticipated this summer.

Australia is not planning to green the Country, presently destruction of our environment is continuing at an alarming rate. As of today, only 50% of Australia's historical forests and bushlands remain intact. Since 1750, the country has lost 27% of the total rainforest, 28% of mallee forest, 19% of open forest, and 11% of the woodland forest. Australia has ranked 5th overall in the study, destroying an average of 416,840 hectares of forestry per year between 2015-2020. Australia is the only developed nation on the list and has been for some time. Article dated: 28 Mar 2023
Done!
I've lived Down Under for 76 years and greening the Centre is all news to me. Nice idea though.
Me too, I've been here for sixty years.
No mention of the great bane of Australian agriculture, salinity.
Camels love green stuff. Better get rid of them first.

😢 that's why no rain
what load of garbage australia 2 thirds desert the driest continent with the worlds worst soils and thats not going to change in any big way and the western australian wheatbelts getting hammered with more input cost all the time to keep the soil viable
There is away to fix australia lands. Bring those beavers from U.K and U.S to Australia. Give up Farmlands and Rivers for Beavers to build their Wetlands all around Australia. But that is not going to make profit now. But will make profit in 100 years. Again. Nothing can change the way those businesses are running. Nothing can change the way those farms are running. Nothing can change the way those human are consuming their foods and products from those farms. Nothing can stop those farmers from farming sheep on grass lands instead of inside a forest. Nothing can stop those cows farmers to farm their cows in forest instead of grasslands. Nothing can stop those big farmers from turning big patches of lands into a single weats farm. Nothing can stop those farmers from turning a giant rainforest into a corn farm. Just as sad as it sound. As bad as it looks. As depressed as it going to be for the future of "Greening" australia. They are turning australia into a farm. Not a rain-forest. To turn australia into a rain-forest? Those Leaders and farmers need to change a lot of their old ways of farming and doing businesses.😂 bring Beaver to australia? Some will even say it is going to ruin the Old australia.

Mate, we can't even get a high speed train organised!
People who don't live here don't realise just how big Australia is.
All of Europe. All of Continental USA.
Dream on...
If you understand how Australian governments work it will never happen.
I think it’d be way easier to just replant Victoria and NSW deforested areas that have been turned into cattle farms, and use that cattle farm land to create tree plantations to slow deforestation and plant fruit trees. And then either decrease the amount of cattle farms or move the, into more arid areas and natural grasslands so they won’t have to destroy trees to house cows and sheep. Turning dessert into forest is near impossible.
That would be terrible. Grasslands actually remove more carbon than forests . But planting more trees everywhere helps including cities but reducing the amount
Where will the soil come from ? I is mostly red sand
As carbon in the atmosphere slowly rises our inland desert are getting greener,we are getting higher rainfall and grass lands are thriving.There is so much bs being taught in out university's about our climate and environment which is alarmist and incorrect
That’s a strange idea. It would be far easier to leave the cattle where they are and reforest other areas. Sounds like you just don’t like cattle 😂
3:02 What you are referring to is the Bradfield project. It has been on the table since the 1920s and science didn't deem it unviable back then, politics and finances did. Only now has our current state Premier, Anastacia Palazschuk put the foot down and put this project into the start of construction as a "now or never" project due to the constant increases of cost. The plan is to redirect the water from the gulf areas down towards the south west to then allow the water to flow down rivers that went through drought due to El Nino in the 2010s, such as the Warrego and Condamine rivers.
Very interesting stuff
Thanks so much for watching catch you in the next one ;)
Employ various low tech methods to keep the water on the land longer. Giant Swales, and retention ponds connecting very slow and curving streams and rivers. Try not to loose any of the seasonal rains to runoff.
Build "leaky" dams in dry creek beds to catch and hold and let the water catch and hold on down the creek bed, and cut paths for the overflow to vent sideways into shallow streams.
Planting rushes and water tolerant trees along the creek to encourage the area around the creeks to store carbon in the root of complex creek ecosystems will give the area an appearance of a temperate climate and will reduce the heat and wind destruction of the land.
This will be a disaster unless some highly experienced folks such as Geoff Lawton and Alan Savory are involved. Irrigation agriculture in Outback Australia will lead to a huge salinity problem.
Folks would be best to go with Syntropic Agroforestry or the Alan Savory method, if they did that, this entire country could be a lush paradise within just a few years!
Australia Is the best place to live.
as an Australian, i see this as an absolute win.
We already export a shit ton of minerals so we dont need to worry about importing any for this
How many million tons of oranges did riverina farms dump last week because they had minor blemishes and the supermarkets rejected them , in favor of unblemished ones imported from China?
Good point
Thanks so much for watching catch you in the next one ;)
Please tell me how any million tons rather than leaving it all up in the air, otherwise it is a pointless thing to say. Come on, how many million tons.
Sounds like Australia needs to grow better oranges

Water usage from the artisan basin is pretty much on the limit, as noted in the video there are some initiatives to conserve water, however it won't be anything near enough to green the outback
Good luck to you Australia with your farming projects.
Monocropping causes the soil to deteriorate. Are soil restoration practices being put to use? Australia has a great tradition of Permaculture; these biodiverse farms are highly productive and grow nutrient dense, organic produce. Think about sustainability and health, not just profit!
Great stuff you've mentioned here
Thanks so much for watching catch you in the next one ;)
That’ll be the day, who’s coming up with these brainstorms !!
It would be nice if Australia could green its Outback, but I don't believe it is possible to green the entire region.
God says "Hold my beer".
Australia must be having tall,useful 🌳 suitable to its regions
Hopefully this can be achieved. Australia Greened and forested will help keep planet earth cool especially when the sun is close to the earth 🌎 during it's revolution around the sun.
Every good idea is a light on Earth. ⭐️⭐️⭐️. Great news. Thanks.
Thanks Kimberley for watching, always awesome having you 💯
This was put forward by the boss of Visy they were going to match dollar for dollar to redirect and capture water from the wet season. It can be done but do governments and people really want to do it? We only have one earth we have got to do something. We need to be much smarter with what we got. Very interesting. 🇦🇺👍🍺
You said it Aloysius
Thanks so much for watching catch you in the next one ;)
And that does not include schoolboy schemes.
Best wishes to Australia big plans
I saw somewhere the biggest issue is the mountain range running down the east coast. Rain comes from the east and gets blocked by mountains 'causing' deserts on the west side of the mountain range.
Sustainable farming is definitely becoming important as more and more people are showing the long term benefits to the land.
Beyond that, the video was just a lot of wishful thinking.
I've lived in Australia all my life (57 as of 23 April 2024). Never heard of this.
The greening of the red centre sounds good in hollwood fairytales.
Just remember that much of the enviroment has evolved over many thousands of years to be the way it is.
Great video as always sounds great Australia would make a lot of its unused land if they do this!
Thanks so much man always a pleasure to have you here

As an Aussie, this is the first I am hearing of the plan!
Australia (where I live) is far too dry for this to work. We produce and live on the continent's coasts. Only a very small percentage of us live inland and it's a harsh life.
It's very true I wish nothing best for the Australian people I do believe because of Australia's geography is the reason why the US became the US and is why Australia just didn't get to the level of the US. The US is rich in resources and has a less harsher environment
Thanks so much for watching:)

@@theprimestlook who plant trees see always rain
There is some good thoughts at the core but how they are capitalizing on this resource is a problem. What they're proposing will exacerbate salty water/land problems. The Aussie government needs to quit these stupid grand plans and opt for more practical ones. The farmers need to quit the conventional monoculture/annual/chemical/bare earth model as well.
They need more frequent, localized and decentralized rainwater harvesting solutions. This puts rainwater in the ground where plants need it without leaving it as vulnerable to evaporation.
If they utilized local plants, or plants naturally well-adapted to the challenging drought/flood conditions, the Asian markets would use that. Asians are very adaptable to incorporating new foods and do it well in abundance.
Like your commentary on this subject. Glad it avoided being duped by the government's faulty solution. One thing your video missed is that their aquifer is spitting out water that is salty and it is harming irrigation/conventional crops, among other things .
Very interesting 💯
@@theprimest
Think that farmers need to be taught the benefits of polycultures, healthy soil biota, localized rainwater harvesting, etc. Big businesses (especially) ought to be discouraged from exploitative land practices.
Oh absolutely thank you for this B uppy hope to see you in the next one :)
@@theprimest
You bet. I enjoy your comments,
The clip does touch on capatalising on flood waters ( does not explain how). Im not sure where the salty water comes in?
Down here in Tasmania there has been a boom in poly tunnels. Raspberry,strawberries blue berries and blackberry. The locals don’t work there though, that’s for the islanders all around Australia. The local Tasmanian couldn’t stand the warm in the tunnels or the pay which is per kg😢
I would think of the CAROB TREE as a good specie to grow in the desert, it helps in feeding animals plus gives plenty of polen & honey.
Stupid idea.. it's salty very salty. High evaporation rate will only raise the salt content
It's true but I do think they have some ways round this thanks so much watching! Catch you in the next one Stephen :)
We cant even fix our roads
Now, if the USA would do the same in the southwest.
They must diverse their agriculturelal to crops types that are suited to dry conditions like, the aloe range
If there were only transparent solar panels you could plant under😔
One of the biggest lies told to Australians is that the original inhabitants were some kind of noble land stewards, the reality is they burnt down everything in sight over the course of 50,000 years and turned a forested continent into mostly desert.
Imagine how cheap food would be if they didn’t export so much
And the water will come from where?

Why not pump water from the northern rivers into the Great Artesian Basin, will it find its own level?
The populations of Japan, South Korea, and China are declining.
But what will happen to the creatures that live and thrive in the deserts and bushes of the outback?
Nothing, there is no such plan, merely an idea of some half wit or other
Who cares? Humans are more important than those creatures!
the lizards will be fine
One horrible aspect of Australian agriculture is the inhumane treatment of livestock for export..they are kept in horrible conditions during transport which results in unnecessary suffering and countless deaths. Smh
Why don't they just use sea water to plant desert, it's not impossible any more
For Australia to succeed and the world for that matter what's needed is The World Economic Forum and its agents within governments to be jailed for treason.
It will help reduce global warming. Double benefit.
It amuses me that the commentator talks about Australia doing this or that, as if somehow the government "owns" the agricultural industry, like in China. The truth is that our agriculture is owned and managed by thousands of small and large concerns. There is no one size fits all, and it is driven by market forces and sustainable viability. In South Australia I led a project to cap the Artesian Bores in the Lake Eyre region - some owners said yes, others said no even though a mining company picked up the tab. Australian farmers are fiercely independent and will not be pushed around by government, or anyone else.
Try to convert maximum regions desert into lush green forest by planting tall spreading shadows various useful trees 🌳 suitable for Soil&climate of the regions such as Rohida. Babool gunda ardu jackfruit peeple banyan jamun mango Shalmali etc.These plants seen in Rajasthan desert
without water those things ain't gonnna grow. you have to destroy the mountains on the east coast of australia
@@Sanyu-Tumusiime Finally someone with some sense. NSW water capturing & logging is killing the East coast of Australia's ecosystem & no one speaks of it. It angers me that Aboriginals do nothing about it.
Farming is not greening !!! No planting forests, just farms & It will no longer be public land !!! And they will kill all the native desert flora & fauna !!! Also they'll drain all the water meant for our Eastern forests, it'll be an ecological disaster !!!
First start planting growing suitable for Soil&climate of the regions from sea coast using sea water 🌊 .When tree 🌳 attain sufficient height move inside, repeat the project, Make whole Australia land covered with lush green forest, Will increase the income, promote tourism ,generate employment.
Covering land with 🌳 trees make regions cool, create catchment areas for clouds ☁️
Flooding Lake Eyre with sea water could give Eastern Australia a rain harvest to its eastern and surrounding lands. It is a salt lake, and is approximately 10 meters below sea level. The rivers flowing to it would be backed-up and water dry land all around it.
Exactly
Great shout! Thanks so much for watching see you in the next one Timmy and Cinema :)

Have you noticed that when Lake Eyre naturally floods, something that happens about once a decade, there is no flush of rainfall to the East and into NSW. That’s because the evaporation is not as a single intense bolus but rather a slow trickle which does not lead to cloud formation and rainfall. Flooding would produce the same inadequate response. It needs something different to produce rainfall.
It cool down the south pole which is important.
It is better they focus on having regenerative farming from the beginning and begin with small farms near human settlements first. Mega projects can cause mega blunders!
Only way this can happen is to duct seawater and deploy small scale reactors to desalinate it into fresh water.
Or do a simple sand filter and let it rip solar pump. Can dilute it with treated sewage, grow salt friendly plants
Underground water are resource, can be utilised in a sustainable manner, with minimal impact to
environment...
except that they are using it faster than it refills and fracking can contaminate the whole system
Developing Agriculture on sustainable ways ( please work with nature don’t destroy it) isn’t only an industry but also one of the foundations to the country be independent if others, if China or another supplier fails Australians will be ok 🤷♂️ if another country got a major problem Australia will be able to help that’s why is important any country try to sustain themselves like an “ecosystem”
I’m a Australian and this will never happen. You need water to do this and further dams are not in the pipe line. Years ago there was great vision to divert excess water from the tropics northern parts of Australia. But it was placed in the to hard basket. Along with most things these days. Everything is just to hard !!!!??
No it will never happen
Asian populations aren't 'increasing boundlessly' they are shrinking very rapidly. Japan's replacement rate is around 0.7, South Korea is around 0.6 and China is set for a demographic collapse too, even though reliable stats are hard to come by.
Fantastic fabulous I can't wait to see that well done Australia
I am an Australian living Australia and this is complete Bull Shit - its completely incorrect and ridiculous !
As an Australian, I’m calling bulls**t on this video. Many claims are made, but no sources for those claims are provided. It sounds like someone’s fantasy, rather than a genuine plan.

About time Australia does it. They have all ways to do it. China and the UN are doing it, why not Australia ?
Intermittent and inconsistent heavy downfalls do not make a reliable water source. Evaporation rates around central Australia are about 2~2.5 metres per year. This means any collection would quickly disappear if held in a broad-acre containment. Sorry, what you are dreaming about will not work. Time to think again.
Tropical savanna, not rich soil for farming
We need many more dams, but greens prevent them.
Demographics say China is going to be half the size it was in a decade. Developing the means to mitigate the boom/ bust cycle are going to be a worthy investment regardless of who the market ends up being. Build it DURABLE like the pyramids and low maintenance, and you might have something. figuring out natural drainage flows and forming holding tanks with coffer dams every 2-12 km would hold surface runoff to let it soak into aquifers and make irrigation water available for crops. Keeping them shallow would allow plants to grow for shade, maybe mitigation the evaporation problem.
Heck having those ponds would probably provide for more firebreaks and supply watter too when the dry is really dry.......
You are going to need more co2 for a green outback
What about natural greening not capital food growing.needs large trees"shade".bio diversity for who ?
This is also in the mind of the projects I'm sure
Thanks so much for watching catch you in the next one ;)
USA2.0 hmm not sure how to feel about that
As an Australian, I know that this will never happen. We do not have the decent politicians, or the decent voters.
It is NOT the rainfall, it is the SALINITY of the inland soil...it has almost NO top soil either. The ways to FIX this is to run a salt water canal for Newcastle on t he east coast though to Kartarta on the West Coast, make it navigable and wide , run the order river scheme down to Adelaide and empty into the Murray Darling and build desalination points in the inland to be able to FLOOD the inland so eradicate the salinity. The error in evaporation rate was over 100 years ago and based on European Topogrhaphy. Make an ariticial mountain range about 300 kms inland from the west coast..etc etc etc., it would work and not just produce so much more but be able to sustain a population MUCH larger, which should be ecouraged to grow by an EXTRA 60 million in conjustion with this scheme, it would INSTANTLY produce a GDP of 13 trillion PLUS and growing . This would leave Australia to pursue its own interests in the world.
If you can't drink it... Don't use it to grow crops

Even if this was true its just impossible due the type of in most of australia its not suitable to plant most things in it
So to hell with all the desert animals?! This is NOT ok!!
Experimental salt water farming 🐣
Salt water ????
It's fresh
20% increase of vegetation and precipitation over the last 40 years due to CO2 fertilization has greened Australia significantly. The so called "negative effects of climate change" are amazingly good for Australia. No doubt, formerly marginal agricultural areas are now productive, profitable and financially rewarding. Eventually property prices will reflect the REALITY on the ground, despite the negative propaganda pouring out of mainstream media and our "highly respected" politicians.
China Korea Japan population is following
The so called First Nations will not allow it .
This will only benefit the environment if the farming is organic or regenerative. Mono agriculture that uses tons of nitrogen, pesticides and herbicides is bad for the environment.
I think the idea of greening inner Australia is a load of rubbish.
The centre of Australia is one big salt pan. Poor soil quality and lots of water will further degrade the desert country and it will not get any greener.
By further marginalization of the indigenous people, it worked for the US 😂😂😂😂
Australia is setting its eyes on greening the outback? Really?
They are forgetting to add biodiversity which would multiply their efforts by the hundreds
PLANT TREES!!!!! HELLO?? I SAID PLANT TREES !!!
Wtf? This is not a plan, it's a fantasy.
Sounds great. Plan's. If only we would stop logging old growth Forest to make rubbish wood chips if you want to see a koala in the wild U better be quick.

Awesome to have you here :)
For a country so rich with vast natural resources but eternally unable to provide sufficient power for consumption and industry is just infuriating. I'd say the greening of the whole of Australia is just a bad joke. It will never happen.its not in Australia's DNA to achieve such greatness.
What a load of crock this fellow is obviously totally misinformed
This will never happen.
