Applying current knowledge to inform grower decision making to mitigate the impact of frost, now and in the future - southern region
The purpose of this investment is to extend and apply the outcomes of previous R&D investments relating to frost to build knowledge that will inform grower and advisor decisions relating to pre-season planning, in-season management and post-frost event responses.
The investment will develop and deliver a targeted and localised delivery mechanism for grower and adviser discussion and knowledge sharing regarding what is currently known and how this knowledge may be practically applied here and now; inform the GRDC of future investment in frost RDE, aligned to GRDC's Key Investment Target 1.2 Strategy, including identification of possible approaches to achieve target strategy outcomes and build a platform for extension of future frost research.
