🌍 Honoured to present my research today at @SoilsSandy in Perth 🇦🇺, representing the @ULvarsity 🇿🇦
🗣️ No-tillage in sandy, semi-arid soils may lead to compaction—site-specific strategies are essential.

Kicking off day 3 of #gcss2025 with an excellent presentation from @BindiIsbister using yield maps and estimated yield potential as a benchmark to measure improvements to soil amelioration across a paddock and ID the soil types that provide the least and most response xitter.cf/Jenni_Clausen/status/1…
