🚜 The research is important. The grower experience is invaluable.
While research helps us understand what's possible, grower experience often provides the insights needed to make confident management decisions.🌾

🎤Join Dr Amanda Schapel as she facilitates a farmer panel exploring how Mallee growers decide where and when to ameliorate, what they've learned and the challenges they've faced.
🌱At our Making Soil Amelioration Pay in the Mallee workshop. Join us for the discussion!

Evaluating the efficacy of organic-based nitrogen fertilisers trial!

The aim of this trial is to evaluate the performance of organic based nitrogen fertilisers, assessing nitrogen uptake, yield and grain quality, last year in wheat, and this year in barley.

This trial is led by @griffithuniversity and funded by @SoilCRC
