A water management technique
pioneered in Australia is being
introduced and tested on farms on
Vancouver Island. Demonstration plots in the
Capital Regional District are offering BC farmers
a first-hand look at Keyline Design tools and
principals in action.
Climate change projections for southern Vancouver
Island include an overall increase in average annual
rainfall but with much of this falling in winter and
potentially in spring and fall (and through more
extreme rainfall events). Summers are anticipated
to become drier with an increase in extremely
hot days. These changes will require producers to
increase the resilience of their operations for both
drought and flood conditions.
