AUSTRALIAN SOIL MANAGEMENT
BOOROWA FIELD DAY
COMPOST FOR HEALTHY SOILS, CROPS & PASTURES
Australian Soil Management are conducting field trials in the Boorowa region using compost to improve soil health. Improving soil health is an important first step in improving crop and pasture productivity. This year compost has been applied to grazing canola at ‘Koonwarra’ and grazing wheat at ‘West Killanear’.
ASM invites producers, land owners and managers to a free information session to find out more.
DISCUSSIONS WILL INCLUDE:
Compost for pasture health
- How can we use compost to improve soil health and grow
better crops and pastures?
Soil – your most important farm asset
- How can we make soil really work for us?
How is compost applied?
What are the costs?
