Sustainable Agriculture: Driving growth through innovation and climate responsive practices.

Investigating crop establishment variability, including seed and plant survival surveys, knowledge baselines, and extension materials. 

Case studies, trials, soil testing, virtual soil pits, and adoption support for tools like the CSIRO Sandy Soils platform to improve productivity on EP’s sands. 

Early detection tools (NDVI, decision trees), workshops, soil testing, and extension activities to manage saline and seep-affected landscapes. 

Demonstration of cover-maintaining amelioration practices, technical soils support, VRT-focused workshops, and practical extension resources. 

Managing current and emerging soil acidity, with extensive soil testing, workshops, potassium-related investigations, and targeted extension. 

Showcasing regenerative practices through demonstration sites, crop walks, field days and a regional Regen Ag Forum. 

Regional soil forums for researchers and advisors to build expertise, identify knowledge gaps and strengthen collaborative RD&E across the region.

Access to tailored technical support for addressing soil constraints. 

We are excited to host a collective of like-minded leaders who are shaping the future of sustainable agriculture. Sharing our farms, our landscapes, and our stories with them is a chance to show the strengths of our Eyre Peninsula Farming Systems and highlight the opportunities that could enhance our farming systems on the EP.
