To determine the current status of the soils with respect to degradation or conservation.
The experiment was a component of a collaborative project (DAV00030) between DPI, BCG/WFS and GRDC that aimed to improve the management of grain crops in the Mallee region of Victoria using precision agricultural technology. The experiment specifically aimed to improve our understanding of the causes of spatial variability within a paddock and its interaction withseasonal conditions as this knowledge is regarded as essential to developing appropriate management strategies in precision....
To investigate the adaptability of a range of lentil and chickpea varieties and breeding lines to interrow sowing in wider row spacings than conventional cropping systems. Results from this trial will be used to provide best management practices for growers and advice to breeders on the characteristics required for modern inter-row and wider row cropping systems.
To report on the implications of the 2002 drought for weed management.
The aims of this project are to (i) determine the spatial variability of crop production within paddocks, (ii) estimate the amount of water which is not being used by the crop, and (iii) develop agronomic solutions to increase water use and reduce the amount of water bypassing the root system of a crop
In this article we summarise results of a recent study of ecological function of 60 patches of remnant native vegetation (“remnants”) in the Wimmera and Murray Mallee bioregions, the major dryland areas in Victoria’s northwest. We assessed soil and vegetation characteristics assumed to contribute towards the long term survival of remnants in the agricultural landscape.
1. Identify within paddock variability (subsoil limitations) and its effects on production and recharge. 2. Identify different paddock ‘zones’ and the effect of rainfall (amount and distribution) on production.
To develop productive and sustainable cropping systems for the alkaline sodic soils in this region.
In 2004, trials were initiated at Birchip and Lubeck in Victoria to test the effects of subsoil remediation on crop water use and yield.
