Integration
Our researchers integrate knowledge from different elements of a food producing landscape to understand the consequences at a variety of scales, from farm system outcomes to life-cycle footprints.
Systems: Integration and Modelling
Ngā Pūnaha: te Pāhekoheko me te Whakatauira
Science solutions to adapt and mitigate to climate change must be effective in a variety of production systems.
Our Science
Modelling
Farm systems modelling expertise is used to predict future climate scenarios and how to evaluate the effect of mitigation and adaptation tools.
Through integration of different elements of the system, our scientists also identify research gaps that inform our research pipelines.
