In program one we looked at how the natural features of the Murray-Darling Basin have shaped farming and water management practices, and how in turn those practices have changed the rivers and the land. In this second part of the series, we look at how over-allocation of water resources, climate change, salinity and other problems are threatening the long-term productivity and sustainability of the region.
