👨🎓 Soil CRC PhD student Cameron Copeland (@SCU_Australia) traded his footy boots for a lab coat when he discovered a passion for agriculture. Now, his research has provided new insight on the use of microbial amendments in #broadacre cropping systems 👉 soilcrc.com.au/research-revea…
Productive visit with @BCG_Birchip on the Curyo trial site examining crop rotation and summer cropping effects on soil health and drought resilience. Discussed data collection, data management and economic analysis @Future Drought Fund @SoilCRC

Australia’s variable climate presents ongoing challenges for land managers, particularly during & after drought. @SoilCRC has produced a suite of practical resources to help farmers, graziers & landholders manage soil health through these tough conditions: soilcrc.com.au/managing-soil-…

Soil testing can measure herbicide residues, but results can be difficult to interpret. Soil CRC researchers developed over 80 new herbicide-soil-crop critical damage thresholds to help growers & advisers make sense of soil & plant tissue tests. Read more: soilcrc.com.au/resources/tool…
