I thought a few yrs back that the EDDHA Fe used in vit/hort would work on beans in our calcareous clays. Solid response this yr @ Lake Hawdon, used as a seed coat & banded at sowing + 2x EDTA Fe foliar. It’s expensive, but the ⬆️ yld might make it pay 🤷🏼‍♀️ MFMG Soil CRC

At Coomandook collecting final dry matter and quality samples for the #MLAgrazingsands trial. Pdk been grazed twice. Recovery unreal this season. Observations: tillage + aged pig manure/bedding >> tillage > no tillage. Shall share results once in 👌🏻

Had the pleasure of hosting my 1st workshop @The40AcreFarm today. An intro to soil health and how to interpret soil test results. A great bunch of chicks from the Limestone Coast, keen to contribute in their farming businesses in an informed way. Thanks WoTL and Limestone Coast Landscape Board

Can we make #sandysoil amelioration pay in a grazing system? Compacted, acidic sand over clay 20-40cm. Using the Imants to rip up some clay and spade in the lime. Doing a great job in ideal moisture. MFMG and AIREP #trials2023 underway! Pasture sowing next 🪱🌱☘️

2nd yr effects of soil inversion and mixing proving the benefit of eliminating water repellence on canola establishment 70DAS GRDC South MFMG Ag. Machinery R&D Centre - AMRDC #amelioratedsands Coomandook site. Photos L to R: control (no tillage); Bednar mix; Plozza plow.

Register NOW for Making effective soil & fertiliser decisions in grazing systems at FRANCES. Tues 24/10. Nutrient & constraint considerations, soil sampling & result interpretation, decision making. Farm Visit. Presenters Mel Fraser & Felicity Turner mackillopgroup.com.au/events

A pleasure to host 2 workshops last week with Felicity Turner empowering producers to make informed fertiliser and amelioration decisions in grazing systems. Thanks to our hosts at Frances & Wattle Range & partners Ag Innovation & Research Eyre Peninsula MFMG SA Drought Resilience Adoption and Innovation Hub #FutureDroughtFund GRDC South

I’m glad the frosty fog lifted at Coomandook this morn to plant our wheat sowing rate x nutrition trials, quantifying 3rd yr responses to soil Inversion versus Chisel Plough on repellent sand thanks to GRDC South CSIRO Sandy Soils II🤞🏻🌧️ PIRSA Anthony Pfitzner MFMG

How long does amelioration last? Depends on the constraints and the treatment applied! Tractor breakdown led to very late sowing at the Coomy MLA demo site this year 🙈 but, topsoil inversion (Plozza) in 2022 to treat water repellence is still proving the goods!

Amazed at this thigh high pasture stand. We’ve sown multispecies summer and winter for the past two years. This autumn all we sowed was ryegrass. It got 80L UAN ahead of rain in early August 🙈 Volunteer radish, peas, chicory, plantain and vetch providing a power of feed now 🐮

Calibre sown back on 30 by 30 ripped vetch hay at Petro Station near Mildura… 85mm of GSR! 80% of N applied VRA IBS! Success of controlling the controllables

Grateful to have been nominated, shortlisted and selected as a finalist for the Grain Producers SA Industry Impact Award. Congratulations to Professor Chris Preston on the win; he’s certainly a very worthy recipient 🏆 Congratulations to all the finalists and winners 🌾👏🏻💚
