Was a busy week crossing sorghum for the ⁦ARC Centre of Excellence for Plant Success⁩ project.

Emma Mace talks about her amazingly impactful research career as part of international women's day celebrations at Hermitage Research Facility

Otwani Daniel Ajaku explains his PhD research project with Emma Mace and I on grain fill duration in sorghum to GRDC. His research suggests that there is considerable potential to increase grain yield and grain size in sorghum.

Great research being shared with visitors from GRDC by the QLD Alliance for Agriculture & Food Innovation and @DAFQld sorghum research team in Warwick. Thank you Sivakumar Sukumaran Otwani Daniel Ajaku Tolera Keno Sean Reynolds Massey and Ken Laws for sharing info on the what, where, how and why details for a range of great projects.

Join us tomorrow to hear from Dr Greg Rebetzke as he discusses the future of crop breeding in the face of climate change. Learn how we're adapting varieties to thrive in evolving environments, in the first installment of the IRTG Seminar series.🌽 🔗 bit.ly/3xX2kSa

Andrew Borrell 's last day working at Hermitage research station after 32 years. Fantastic to have the opportunity to work with him on sorghum for 30 of those years. Amazing contribution by Andy to the field of sorghum drought physiology in Austrslia and globally.

Boosting grain size in sorghum by increasing the grain filling duration. #UQResearch from @Ajakudaniel is all about boosting the grain size of commercial hybrids. Discover more about his work via the link: bit.ly/3ViMc5d @COEPlantSuccess @DAFQld

A star is rising from Hermitage Research Facility, Warwick QLD. Go buddy go ⭐️🌟👏👏👏 not known where he will be landing yet 🧚‍♂️🧚‍♂️⭐️🌟
