Farmer stories that demonstrate the value of rigorous on-farm experimentation in improving profitability have been released to the Australian grains industry.

The new ‘On Farm Experimentation Grower Case Studies’ booklet is a result of the On-Farm Experimentation project led by Curtin’s Centre for Crop and Disease Management (CCDM) and highlights the potential of farmer-led paddock-scale trials using farm equipment to find solutions to nutrition management.

The research team, led by Dr Julia Easton, worked with three farmers from Merredin, Nyabing and Kojonup in co-designing, developing and analysing their paddock-scale experiments.

Well done Dr Easton and the CCDM team.

The booklet is available to read online here.
