Late sowing of cereals due to waterlogging

Autumn and Winter waterlogging is relatively common in WA’s Albany and Esperance port zones, but it can severely impact grain production. But new research is giving growers greater confidence to sow late season cereal varieties or reseed in a challenging season. The research, made possible with GRDC investment, involves Stirlings to Coast Farmers, Fitzgerald Biosphere Group and Southeast Premium Wheat Growers Association (SEPWA). In this podcast, Lizzie Von Perger from Stirlings to Coast Farmers and Dave Cook from SEPWA talk us through the research findings and the insight collected so far.  Download the transcript for this episode Contacts: Lizzy Von Perger Stirlings to Coast Framers [email protected]   Michelle Hendley South East Premium Wheat Growers Association (SEPWA) [email protected] More Information: GRDC YouTube – Late sowing of cereals due to waterlogging GRDC farm trials portal – Results from this investment GRDC Codes: SCF2208-001SAX, SCF2306-005SAX Learn more about your ad choices.
