Frost risk Pt 2: Site elevation

Published: March 27, 2019, midnight

In this two-part podcast Matt Gardner form AMPS Research discusses sowing strategies, site elevation and crop monitoring tools and how these variables can help manager frost risk without unnecessarily sacrificing yield. At Matt\u2019s early sowing trial site near Premer on the NSW Liverpool Plains the paddock has a 50-metre variation in elevation.\n\nIn part two of this podcast Matt moves to the top end of the slope and compares the difference in crop performance and frost risk and discusses what that means for a sowing strategy.\n\nAnd grain grower Tom Simpson who has been involved in the trials tells of his experience on a broad acre scale.\n\nFurther information:\nMatt Gardner \u2013 AMPS Research\nAMPS Agribusiness\n46 Dampier Street, Tamworth NSW 2340\nPO Box 3493\nWest Tamworth NSW 2340\nPh: 02 6762 2677\ne: matt@ampsagribusiness.com.au\n\nResources: https://grdc.com.au/frost-faq https://grdc.com.au/resources-and-publications/groundcover/ground-cover-issue-126-january-february-2017/site-elevation-broadens-the-yield-frost-equation\nLearn more about your ad choices.
