evokeAG 2025: sparking connections for a resilient future

Last week, members of the SW WA Hub team headed to evokeAG 2025 in Brisbane, joining industry leaders, researchers and innovators to explore new opportunities in drought resilience.

Our shared booth, alongside the other Australian Drought Hubs and Beanstalk AgTech, showcased the propaGATE program, which is developing sustainable solutions for agricultural wastewater treatment. The event was a fantastic opportunity to chat with growers, agtech startups, and investors about how innovation can help future-proof farming.

Beyond the conference, side events provided even more chances to connect, share ideas, and strengthen partnerships. The conversations we had will help shape ongoing collaborations as we work towards a more resilient, sustainable future for Australian agriculture.

Representatives from the eight Drought Hubs, the Future Drought Fund, and other FDF-funded programs gathered at evokeAG 2025 in Brisbane to connect and collaborate on drought resilience and innovation.
