Episode description

A major farming systems initiative, spanning five years, is underway in the low and medium-rainfall regions of Western Australia.  

Its aim is to support growers in navigating evolving climatic conditions, enabling them to make informed business and agronomic choices to bolster both on-farm profitability and sustainability. 

In this episode, we get an overview of the results from the first two-seasons of the project from grower and trial host Kevin Naisbitt and DPIRD’s Martin Harries.
