NGN - Locally relevant spring and/or summer sown cropping opportunities for grain growers following excessive winter waterlogging - South-Western Australia
This GRDC investment aims to provide growers with a range of spring/summer sown cropping options to address the impacts of excessive winter waterlogging and explore summer production opportunities. It will locally validate previous R&D investment relating to spring sown crops, building local grower and adviser knowledge to inform decisions when managing excess soil moisture.
This investment will include economic and market analysis and will be grower driven so the solutions demonstrated in the field are both practical and relevant.
