GRDC Code: CSP2203-006RTX
NGN Soil water modelling of stripper and draper header front stubbles to identify possible differences in water capture and storage for early sowing opportunities.
The opportunity exists to demonstrate and validate soil water accumulation models under stripper and draper front stubbles across a range of environments using data from investment FLR2012-003RTX to ground truth model parameters. The modelling in this investment would extend the likely water conservation outcomes for different sites and years to inform growers of the amount and frequency of water conservation advantages or disadvantages in different regions and seasons.
