Hyper Yielding Cereals - WA Study Tour

from GRDC Podcast Hosted by Grains Research and Development Corporation

After identifying a need to lift cereal yields to take advantage of the extensive soil amelioration work that’s been happening in Western Australia and newfound opportunities to sow early crops, a group of innovative Esperance growers were keen to investigate options. Quenten Knight a member of the Soil Constraints West steering committee and an agronomist with Agronomy Focus in Esperance put together a study tour plan for the group and with a GRDC Grower Development award, the Esperance growers had the means to travel. Their destination was the Hyper Yielding Cereals trial site in New Zealand.
