Digging deeper into soil health

Growers and advisors across the region recently wrapped up three valuable workshops with Dr Cassandra Schefe, exploring what really drives productivity beneath the soil surface. Cassie’s ability to link soil science with practical, cost-effective on farm actions made the sessions incredibly worthwhile for everyone involved.

This year’s workshops placed strong focus on sodicity, slaking, soil acidity, and both the importance of soil testing and the interpretation of soil tests to enhance productivity and ensure long term soil health. All areas where early intervention can protect yield potential and improve profitability.

Below is a recap for those who attended, and a summary for growers wanting to understand their soil better.
