In episode three of the South-West WA Hub's Dry Season Resources podcast series, host Shannon Beattie delves into the challenges facing growers in the northern agricultural region and explores some key dry season learning with local agronomy consultant, Grant Thompson.
Grant talks about the impact that the low decile season has had on growers in the north. He explores the challenges of crop health, the opportunity to incorporate N up against low, infrequent rainfall, and unseasonably hot August days coupled with a warm dry end of the season.
Grant’s key takeaways from the 2023 dry season emphasise varietal choice time of sowing. He gives his tips on recommended wheat and canola variety types, paddock preparation, and the importance of planning ahead and having multiple plans (A, B, C) to combat the changing climate.
