Are you an expert in soil #nitrogen cycling and simulation? We are looking for a Research Scientist to work on #APSIM with a multi-organisational project team located across Australia. jobs.csiro.au/job/Brisbane%2… @csiro @inverted_soil @peterthorburn2 @Chelsea_Janke @theGRDC
Reach out if you are keen to get involved in our drought resilience, high value protein and trusted Agri foods work. CSIRO, governments and industry put $150m into farm sector research abc.net.au/news/2021-09-0…
Dr Brian Keating has been announced as the Crawford Fund Medal 2020 Awardee for his enduring significant contribution to international agricultural research. 🎊 Congratulations! Read more: bit.ly/38tJVMD @QAAFI @ACIARAustralia @CSIRO @UQ_News @CGIAR @CGIARclimate
Rossi's are doing so much to keep their corner of the world in top shape.
Chris Rossi & his brothers at Aloomba, south of Cairns, reckon composting has cut the nitrogen bill by $30K but it’s cost $50K to do it. ‘We’re here did the long haul and the return on investment will be there for years to come’ #regenerativeagriculture #canegrowers
Tonight CANEGROWERS is part of this international webinar on blockchain in the sugar industry. Hear about our project aiming to build value for growers from the recognition of sustainable farming practices bit.ly/2Yg04jV
#1622WQapp - 1 year on and going strong. We’ve started working with @Qldenvironment to show data in 1622WQ from new #nitrogen sensors being installed in the Burdekin and Herbert regions. Stay tuned as the data streams come on line! @csiro #greatbarrierreef #sugarcane @K8ALangford

How does a farmer-friendly water quality app get created? Combine experts in water quality, user centered design, software engineering and agronomy in a project and let them run with it! authors.elsevier.com/a/1bbhs4sKhEOz… #1622app #GreatBarrierReef @CANEGROWERS @CSIRO @IowaWaterCenter
Pleased to announce that ISU is now formally part of the AI!
.@isuagronomy is the first N. American entity to join the Agricultural Production Systems sIMulator (APSIM) Initiative. The computer modeling tools predict crop production in light of climate, genotype, soil and management factors. @iastate_cals More: cals.iastate.edu/news/releases/…
Bianca is looking to uncover some new ideas about #soil #phosphorus dynamics in these experiments. We’re looking forward to the results! Have fun.
Drone Remote Sensing: Take home messages from this #drones work: (1) You can predict #sugarcane biomass ~8 months before harvest. (2) Leaf #nitrogen equally well predicted. (3) Multispectral and/or LiDAR outperform #NDVI. Get the paper at- sciencedirect.com/science/articl… #1622app #GBR
Our new paper on the use of #drones equipped with #LiDAR and #multispectral sensors for monitoring #sugarcane is out. A must read, if you're interested in #yield prediction: authors.elsevier.com/sd/article/S03… Thanks for your efforts @JJSofonia @peterthorburn2 @emesent @CSIRO @sugarresearch
Decent rain across the Wet Tropics over the past 24 hours. Even this late in the wet season you can detect Nitrate Nitrogen rises in the creeks and rivers as the water level rises. Check it out for yourself at 1622.farm #wettropics #1622app
What happened to nitrate in rivers flowing to the #GreatBarrierReef in the 20219-20 wet season? See @Agro_Tone explain. The story is also at research.csiro.au/digiscape/1622… #agtech #1622app
Our #1622app was used by #sugarcane growers for its first wet season in waterways in far north Qld to show water quality changes in real-time. Check it out for yourself: 1622.farm #csiroag #GreatBarrierReef
Access our app for water quality and rainfall data at wq.1622.farm See the full story in the ECOS magazine. #1622app #waterquality #digiscape #GBR #fertilizer @CANEGROWERS
We're helping sugarcane farmers in far north Queensland manage their fertiliser use and reduce nitrogen runoff onto the Great Barrier Reef. ecos.csiro.au/helping-sugarc…
From paddock-to-plate, Dr Jen Taylor from our Agriculture and Food unit tells @SBSFood how the bushfires impact Australian agriculture. sbs.com.au/food/article/2…
This is a tremendous outcome! A huge thank you to the growers who have engaged, bought in and sought accreditation. Thank you to the #SmartcaneBMP facilitators for their efforts to support growers in the program. For those who know me - I’ll be dancing to celebrate this news!
Cake today in the office to celebrate the news 500 Qld #sugarcane growers are now Smartcane BMP accredited - farming at or above industry best practice for productivity, profitability and sustainability @QldEnvironment @gbrmarinepark
Driving through the “wet” Wet Tropics to talk at the @Fertcare_au updates about how the 1622WhaIf app can help #sugarcane farmers maximize their production under the new Reef Regulations. #1622app @CANEGROWERS #digiscape @FertilizerNews #GreatBarrierReef
Water tables are common across the US Midwest. @SArchontoulis has been doing great work incorporating water tables into #APSIM modelling of corn and soybean crops across the whole region. Check it out crops.extension.iastate.edu/facts/.
Dug this hole 2 days ago in my home field. No precipitation since then. Today the water table is 6 inches from the surface. Silt loam over clay pan. Things like this makes farming in Southern Iowa rather “interesting”.
