Post-harvest groundcover matters—especially in fragile soils. Learn how soil amelioration improved biomass, reduced weed pressure, and protected soil in a 2024 Dandaragan trial, offering practical insights for managing erosion, moisture retention, and resilience between harvest and seeding.
Soil health, weed control, stubble systems, and market insights took centre stage at WMG’s 2025 Crop Research Updates—bringing farmers and experts together for a day of practical knowledge-sharing, regional trial results, and on-farm innovation.
Water repellence is a major constraint in sandy soils—but strategic amelioration can help. Learn what causes repellence, how it affects crop performance, and which management options can improve infiltration, reduce erosion, and support long-term soil function.
A cross-regional collaboration between WMG and CFIG brought growers together to share practical stubble management insights—helping build resilient farming systems, improve soil cover, and foster partnerships across WA’s grainbelt through on-farm trials and grower-to-grower learning.
Growers gained practical insights into spray calibration, drift control, and new technology at WMG’s GRDC-supported workshop—combining expert advice, live demos, and autonomous sprayer tech to improve product efficacy, reduce waste, and boost on-farm spraying confidence.
Discover how the Risk/Reward Tool is helping farmers make better decisions by translating complex research into practical, easy-to-use formats—combining economic, environmental, and social insights in a way that supports real-world adoption.
Explore an in-depth analysis of the 2024 K Extension Project Dandaragan and Badgingarra trial results, offering practical insights for growers looking to optimise nutrient use and improve long-term productivity.
