Future Farm Phase 2: Improving farmer confidence in targeted N management through automated sensing and decision support
This Future Farm investment aims to re-examine the way in which soil and crop sensors are used to inform decisions about input management. The project will target automating the process from data acquisition, through analysis, to the formulation and implementation of decision options. The initial focus is on improving the efficiency and profitability of applied nitrogen (N).
