Case study - Les Gillespie - 1 tonne per ML

Irrigation water was scarce last season so Les Gillespie drill sowed Langi into fallow moisture to limit his crop inputs including water until the seasonal outlook improved.

He had an outstanding result. The crop yielded 11.2 t/ha on 10.3 ML/ha of irrigation water. That is 1.1 t/ML over 52 ha.
