SUMMARY:Farming in Two Worlds: Integrating Physical and Digital Agriculture - Lecture by Prof Salah Sukkarieh
DESCRIPTION:2025 Hector and Andrew Stewart Memorial Lecture by Prof Salah Sukkarieh\nAll members of the public are invited to attend this exclusive lecture hosted by The UWA Institute of Agriculture. It will be delivered by Salah Sukkarieh\, Professor of Robotics and Intelligent Systems at the University of Sydney\, and focused on ‘Farming in Two Worlds: Integrating Physical and Digital Agriculture‘ at UWA Bayliss Lecture Theatre G33. \nDrawing on current research and implementation\, the talk will highlight how real-time robotics in the field\, Internet of Things (IoT) sensing networks\, and AI-driven analytics are transforming everything from soil and water management to crop and animal monitoring and farm labour. It will examine how the digitisation of models – often referred to as Digital Twins – can operate in parallel with real-time sensing systems\, providing a framework for forecasting\, scenario testing\, and timely interventions. \nThe lecture will present real-world case studies demonstrating how these technologies are already being applied in farming systems across scales and contexts. The lecture sets out a vision in which the integration of physical and digital domains enables agriculture to become more responsive\, sustainable\, and resilient in the face of complex challenges.

SUMMARY:HILT CRC public webinar: Using the Aluminium Stewardship Initiative (ASI) Method to support aluminium decarbonisation
DESCRIPTION:The Aluminium Stewardship Initiative (ASI) Performance Standard V3 (2022) calls for certifying ASI Entities (no matter where they sit on the aluminium value chain) to “establish a Greenhouse Gas (GHG) Emissions Reduction Plan and ensure a GHG Emissions Reduction Pathway consistent with a 1.5-degree warming scenario”. \nThe ASI Method (published in 2024) is a unique\, whole-of-value-chain model that allows companies to articulate 1.5-degree aligned pathways and demonstrate conformance with this requirement. \nIn this webinar\, ASI Climate Change and Decarbonisation Director Chris Bayliss will explore the ASI Method’s “sectoral decarbonisation approach”\, which has applicability throughout the aluminium value chain\, from mining to end use and recycling. \nAssociate Professor Emma Aisbett from the Australian National University will share the HILT CRC perspective. Emma leads HILT CRC’s project on certification and verification (⁠RP3.006)\, which is working with industry partners to make sense of the rapidly evolving rules for measuring and certifying embedded emissions across aluminium\, cement and other sectors. Her team’s research is helping companies these frameworks and how to position themselves for market access and competitiveness in a low-carbon economy. \nThe presentations will be followed by an audience Q&A.
