PROJECT SUMMARY Productive pastures are a key driver for livestock and mixed farm business profitability; hence it is critical farmers are utilising productive pasture species best suited to their environment. In this project various pasture species and mixes were evaluated for their productivity and quality at BIGG and MNHRZ field demonstration sites.

PROJECT SUMMARY Pasture selection decisions can be challenging, especially when aiming to optimise production and livestock performance. In this project, BIGG and MNHRZ assessed and communicated the productivity of pasture species/mixes in local farming systems.

Who are the winners and losers in the wheat frost and variety debate?

Understanding frost and minimising financial risk due to frost in the MNHRZ

Mick Faulkner talks to Drew Radford about helping growers improve decision-making around frost-prone pdk zones thru trial work, supported by the MNHRZ and the @SADroughtHub

Three year summary from Giles Corner.

Why do the trials?
Nitrogen (N) management still remains an issue for growers and research has shown N deficiency is considered the biggest single cause of yield gap in Australian wheat. This project was established to build on existing knowledge around N management and to improve and refine N management strategies.

Why do the trials?
Selecting and managing pastures effectively can be challenging, especially when trying to optimise production and livestock performance across different environments.
