What drives farm management decisions – Fact sheet
To gain a thorough understanding of the factors driving landholder decision-making within and across regions, we need to research the drivers of farmer decision-making. Read our project fact sheet to learn more.
Visualising Australasia’s soils: an interoperable spatial knowledge system – Fact sheet
This project addresses the rapid increase in soil data supply, big data and its transformation into knowledge. Read our fact sheet to learn more.
Smelling soil health with an eNose – Research findings fact sheet
Farmers want to know more about their soil to make evidence-based decisions on land management. Electronic nose (eNose) technology may be a useful way to monitor changes in the soil and provide this information to farmers. Read our research findings fact sheet for project 2.1.004 – Smelling soil.
Managing soils during and after drought in grazing systems – Fact sheet
The impact of drought on soils can be mitigated through careful management of soils during, following and in between droughts by developing more resilient soils. Read our project fact sheet to find out more.
Managing soils during and after drought in cropping systems – Fact sheet
The impact of drought on soils can be mitigated through careful management of soils during, following and in between droughts by developing more resilient soils. Read our project fact sheet to find out more.
