🚜🌱 WA growers – we want to hear from you!
GGA is inviting Western Australian growers to share their experiences, insights and perspectives on the use of grain legumes in crop rotations, what’s working, what’s changing, and where are the gaps.

Since 2022, GGA has partnered with 15 grower groups across Western Australia through a GRDC-investment into grain legumes which investigates local barriers limiting adoption. GGA is now interested in understanding whether grower confidence in grain legume production has improved over this time.

Your input will help guide future GRDC investments into grain legume RD&E in WA.

Over the past eight weeks, growers from groups across Western Australia involved in the Riskwi$e project, have shared how they’ve been "Making the Call" around Nitrogen usage, in a new podcast mini series called Making the Call: Farming Decisions in Western Australia.

From Esperance to the Mid West, these episodes explored how real decisions are being made on-farm around nitrogen usage and efficiency.

A big thank you to the growers and grower group partners
