Increasing Precision Agricultural Awareness and Adoption in South East of South AustraliaThe aim of the project was to increase the understanding and awareness of how spatial measurement tools (EM38 mapping, Imagery data, RTK Elevation Data & Yield Mapping) can be utilised to identify variations in soil capabilities & to then demonstrate how management can potentially be changed over these areas & the economics of implementing these changes.4 of the 6 sites were looking at changes in Nitrogen management over the demonstration paddocks, another site focussed on varying rates of gypsum & the final site looked at seeding rates & varieties in broad beans. |

Integrated Farming Systems in the Medium Rainfall ZoneThe expected outcome of the project is that by 2021, growers in the MRZ of the South East and their advisors will have access to new relevant information on diverse crop rotations and integrated farming systems, particularity the incorporation of a pasture phase. This will allow for better crop sequencing decision making, with the aim of increasing farm sustainability, diversity and ultimately profitability, through the adoption of improved rotations and break crop management options. |
