Australian grain growers will be able to reduce the manageable impact of fungal disease using validated decisions support tools in managing the major diseases of cereal, oilseed and pulse crops.
The aim of this project is to help more growers with ameliorated soils in the medium and high rainfall zones adopt new farming systems techniques to maintain the benefits of soil amelioration, as w
Growers and agronomists will have an improved understanding of pulse growth and development across a range of environments enabling the matching of pulse genotypes with soil and climate to maximise
Wheat and barley growers in the LRZ and MRZ of the Southern and Western Regions will be able to reduce the impact of Rhizoctonia on their crops through gaining new knowledge on the risk of the dise
Australian grain growers will be able to adopt and integrate the agronomic and systems innovation results from this project to manage enterprise mix and rotations, supporting increased whole farm p
Growers will be enabled and supported to implement specific integrated weed management strategies to reduce the economic impact of brome grass across the low rainfall zones of the Western and South
Breeders will have access to improved vegetative cold and reproductive chilling tolerant chickpea lines and high throughput screening techniques and diagnostic molecular markers.
Growers cropping soil constrained by sodicity and transient salinity in the eastern grainbelt will be able to reduce production risk and increase profitability by having access to improved informat
This project aimed to improve nutrient-use efficiency through soil acidity amelioration and applying fertiliser to meet agronomic need and, as a result, reduce the amount of nutrients leaching into
The aim for this project is to discover the theoretical upper limit for crop yield in water limited environments by overcoming multiple soil constraints and boosting grain yields as a result.
Running a flock of sheep and raising lambs has both direct (enteric fermentation) and indirect (lime, fertiliser, fuel, production of feed) greenhouse gas emissions.
Carpet sea squirt (Didemnum vexillum) is an invasive marine pest that can overgrow native marine species and increase biofouling on commercial and recreational vessels.
DPIRD's Carbon Farming team presents workshops, information sessions and one-on-one meetings for farmers and other landowners interested in learning more about carbon farming and the WA Carbon Farm
