Dryland farmers in Mediterranean zones need a new farming system to help prevent soil erosion and increase production of sheep and wheat. This book tells how such a system was discovered in Australia, and considers what is needed to enable farmers in other dryland zones to benefit from its benevolent effects and productivity.
