A picture paints a thousand words… Wall to wall mapping meetings with soils Agro Beth Humphris today. I make maps, she talks soils! Landscape change (elevation) + NDVI/yield maps + a couple of carefully placed soil cores got us to our VR lime, gyppo and P decisions in PCT Agcloud

Why apply broad acre inputs variably… A picture tells a thousand words! Minimal difference at the soils surface, huge difference beneath 🤯 🗺️ 🚜

The UNFS Soils Knowledge project will be releasing a series of case studies over the coming weeks JUST IN TIME FOR SOWING! Read the first case study ‘Use of Precision Ag Mapping to Identify and Ameliorate pH Variation Economically’. Follow the link: bit.ly/3VDM9Ru

This is apart of a project I’ve been lucky enough to lead for UNFS. The project is titled ‘soils knowledge’ and has podcasts, field days and fact sheets as main outputs. This is 1/5 case studies sharing realistic management tips with growers. Have a read using the below link!

I’ve always wondered what the trade off is to including another species into the vetch rotation. No better way to answer the question than doing a trial. Read the below if you want to know too. 🌱

What a fantastic few days!! Spent yesterday recording the new round of podcasts talking about recent soil case studies. Then today was the first UNFS Soil Conference. Very rewarding to be apart of.

Come see how I zone up paddocks and analyse soil cores at the field days. Soil core demos at 11, 1 and 3 each day! 👩‍🔬

Todays learning…. Ground truth, ground truth, ground truth! Been looking at gamma, EM, elevation and soil data for weeks still with a few question marks. Punch a few cores and drive across a few zones and it’s all so much clearer. 👌🌾

🎤 New Project Alert (Part B) 🚨 Have you wished you could do more to change the soil you have to work with on your farm? This project aims to demonstrate the use of automated land forming designs in dune/swale systems in the UN using local providers. Details/dates early 24’

EM38 is great to pick light vs. heavy soils types… But still requires a lot of ground truthing to identity different clay types. That’s why gamma peaked my interest. A current Upper North Farming Systems project looks at how gamma layers can map clay types. Join us Wed to learn more. 🔬🗺️🚜

Four years in the making! Damo is excited for the first limited production run of TAGGR for the 2024 hay season. 🧑‍🌾 🚜

An awesome day at Wandearah at the Saline Soils Mega-Site showcasing the use of PA map technology to design a cut and fill automated design - moving 10cm of sand onto a saline flat after being applied with gypsum. 🌱 Upper North Farming Systems Beth Humphris Chris Crouch

Sometimes the best trial is the simplest! Hand spread various rates of SOP on hay ground to check for K response. This was replicated on 4 different soil types. 🌾🚜

Well that’s something I never thought I’d do…. Lentil sowing at YONGALA. One of two lentil trials. One at Yongala & one at Jamestown. Looking at 11 varieties, plant populations (80, 120 and 160 plants/m2) and the new acid tolerant rhizobia vs the normal. Elders
