Partnerships

The TAS Farm Innovation Hub helps farmers build resilience to climate variability and drought. It is one of eight national drought hubs funded by the Australian Government’s Future Drought Fund, with this investment matched by the TAS Hub’s industry partners. Based at the Tasmanian Institute of Agriculture, the Hub works closely with farmers, communities, and stakeholders.

It connects farmers, researchers, advisors, and industry groups to share knowledge, foster innovation, and support sustainable practices. These collaborations drive better land and water management and strengthen rural communities, helping ensure a financially, environmentally, and socially resilient future for Tasmanian agriculture.

Telstra's purpose is to build a connected future so everyone can thrive. As Australia’s leading telecommunications and technology company, it is a priority to help regional customers adapt to technological change, and the opportunities it can bring to their communities.

From making AgTech solutions, healthcare and education more accessible to reducing the impacts associated with climate change and realising the opportunities that technology can bring.
