To demonstrate the effectiveness of liquid surfactants and related application methods at seeding on crop performance on non-wetting soils with differing stubble loads and types in the Albany, Esperance and Kwinana West port zones.
In 2020, soil surfactant treatments applied to non-wetting soil sites at Newdegate, Cuballing, Gibson, Nyabing and Dunn Rock showed no significant differences in crop establishment or yield production between treatments.
