If we deep sow, where does the fertiliser go? New experiment at Waikerie in 2023. New GRDC long coleoptile project.

🎙️ NEW PODCAST 'GRDC in Conversation' with Dr Ann McNeill, a soil scientist who started life in the UK, spent time in Syria working in dryland agriculture & landed in Oz where she’s worked with farmers to help improve their crops. With Oli Le Lievre

After a GRDC South tour of Waite Campus today, I’m blown away, and thrilled to know the future is bright for Australian grain growers. So much talent, innovation and future planning. Well done CSIRO Uni of Adelaide Crop Watch SA Bonnie Flohr Kenton Porker Tara Garrard Sara Blake

Using tarps and irrigation we are manipulating starting soil water to test long coleoptile wheat emergence from depth as part of the national GRDC project. Treatments setup this week in SA & Vic with dream team Corinne Celestina James Hunt Andrew Ware Brooke Bennett Greg Rebetzke

Happy International Day of Women and Girls in Science! We are grateful for these exceptional women in agricultural science that Nicole Baxter has captured in her work for GRDC GroundCover magazine and for FarmLink Research Research. @WomenSciAUST #WomenInScience #WomenInScience Day

Kicking off new GRDC project discussing all things barley agronomy and physiology, great collaboration between Charles Sturt University University of Melbourne CSIRO Uni of Adelaide NSW DPI Agronomy DPIRDWA PIRSA Birchip Cropping Group (BCG) to #makebarleygreatagain 🌾

A great opportunity for an early career farming system modeller at CSIRO. See more here-

Thrilled to host the CSIRO for the first virtual fencing trials in SA with sheep! Enormous potential for improved feed utilisation, and improve protection of our vulnerable soils. GRDC South Bonnie Flohr

Tony Swan discussing Legumes, N legacies, Sequences, profit and Risk at the CSIRO GRDC North farming systems field day at Greenethorpe. The weather gods were kind! Great morning with Advisers and growers on all things systems.

Are you interested in an indefinite role exploring options to improve productivity and sustainability of agricultural systems? We are recruiting a Research Officer - Agricultural modelling & data management to join our group in SE Qld. jobs.csiro.au/s/6W4VJu

I wasn’t sure what to expect at our dry sown, non-wetting sand “robust ground-cover project” site this week, but found deep sown (12cm) Greg Rebetzke long coleoptile wheat & vetch emerging😍. Autumn break still hasn’t occurred, and anything shallow sown is ungerminated Mallee Sustainable Farming

Excellent uniform emergence with long coleoptile Mace18 sown into deep moisture (100mm depth) at North Balidu WA. Great work @SlrAgriculture and great support GRDC West GRDC

Grower query 'What happens to root growth when deep-sowing?' Wheat seedling emphasis on shoot growth to ensure emergence but reduction in root number and biomass. Long coleoptiles (+Rht18) performing better in Mace/Magenta backgrounds #FutureCrops Therese Mcbeath Bonnie Flohr

.CSIRO's research scientist Dr Jeremy Whish has won GRDC’s Northern Recognising and Rewarding Excellence Award for his contribution to modelling of farming system trials and the outcomes he’s delivered to grain growers. Congrats Jeremy! bit.ly/34Co5bI

There are so many amazing women in Ag. research! thanks for the shout-out GRDC #InternationalDayofWomenandGirlsinScience .

On this International Day of Women and Girls in Science, SAGIT pays tribute to all females working in science & research to advance SA’s grain industry.

We acknowledge and applaud your contribution & efforts, and encourage others to follow in your footsteps.

#WomeninScienceDay

Today we celebrate #InternationalDayofWomenandGirlsinScience . GRDC celebrates talented women in science and hopes to inspire the future generation of girls in science. Read about some of the incredible women in science and the grains industry. bit.ly/3gFShEY

Do proud of this young agronomist!! So lucky to be her Aunt and to live in her orbit. You rock Bon! Our world needs all that you are doing. (Not to mention all the other bits you juggle at the same time 👶🏼)💜

Super proud to join this awardee list and I am grateful to everyone who has helped me build an interesting career in ag science. It’s an industry I love, and the people are the best!
