Thanks Dylan Hirsch for carting my favourite soil. We will prove it precious🤞. It will probably help us making 1. heavy soil less greedy for H2O, 2. reduce boron toxicity by dropping pH. We are replicating this @4sites. GRDC Chris Gazey wayne parker David Hall

Re-engineering a calcareous clay soil (high pH, Boron and EC) at Salmon Gums using sand, gypsum and organic matter. Pit 1 of 4 shown with sand layers. Surface treatments also applied without excavation. Tremdous support from Sam Guest , GRDC West and DPIRD Broadacre - WA Grains & Livestock


This is the last episode (trial) from us for 2022. Thanks everyone for your enormous support. We missed our local legend Glenn McDonald due to COVID. Chris Gazey GRDC

iMc Fels 🐑🌾 Aaron Liddell David Hall Tom Edwards Researchers need quantify what gives the largest return over time to see where resources are best spent. Show value and we’ll figure out logistics. Considering reclaying some of our 99’ done stuff that was done at 150 but not before I’ve finished what I have in front of me.


Sam Richards David Hall One of 11 research sites now established across the WA Grainbelt as part of the Re-engineering soils project led by DPIRDs Dr Gaus Azam co-invested in by DPIRD Broadacre - WA Grains & Livestock and GRDC West via the Soil Constraints West II program SoilsWest looking for new unconstrained yield potential

~60% of WA's arable hectares are sodic and alkaline soil 🥬 The new 🆓 eBook Soil Quality 8 brings together current knowledge and grower experiences to help landholders, scientists and consultants better manage these soils ➡️ apple.co/3R241m5 GRDC West DPIRD Broadacre - WA Grains & Livestock

Sodic soils are a challenge and R&D by wayne parker David Hall & team is amazing. Checkout grdc.com.au/resources-and-… and Apple ibook apple.co/3R241m5. Investment by DPIRD Broadacre - WA Grains & Livestock GRDC Thanks Jo Chad Coshy Larry Trevor & Lucas etal Trial at Mullewa is awesome

After a hot drying week dpird re-engineering trials really shining. Still healthy and green. Rest of paddock lost most of its leaf. Great research Dr Gaus Azam SoilsWest DPIRD Broadacre - WA Grains & Livestock Glenn McDonald
