TrialCo

It's been an unusual year for wetting agent research on non-wetting sandy soils in WA’s southern agricultural region. But as @trial_co's Kylie Lockyer and Steve Penny explain, the wet start to the growing season hasn't put a dampener on the trial's purpose bit.ly/2XXKtIA

Some Dad’s just go the extra mile… #soundoff

Not such ideal weather for harvesting today, but not bad for some sample analysis in the lab hey Kate! #trialco #agresearch #greatsouthern #harvest2021 #peopleofag

Trialing the effectiveness of surfactants youtu.be/soejIR6qFH4 via @YouTube ... have a look at the non wetting soils project we have been undertaking for the last couple of seasons when you get a minute #grdc #nonwettingsoils #agresearch #trialco #greatsouthern

Happy #nationalagday 🚜

About to harvest the GRDC nonwetting site at Munglinup,be interesting to see if there is any trt diffences #GRDC #nonwettingsoils @trial_co @theGRDC

Harvest time! #agresearch #harvest21 #trialco

Great to be checking out our soft wheat trials in Katanning today! Nice to see a few club heads in plots again 🌾. ⁦@trial_co⁩ ⁦@jfredgodoy⁩ ⁦@mullan_daniel⁩

A quick snap shot thread of our deep sowing by herbicide interaction trial at Katanning. Thanks to @trial_co for managing this trial and many others for @agtbreeding.

TrialCo farm is looking pretty in these October days! #agresearch #greatsouthern #agtrials

Good seasons blur wetters’ benefits to our burgeoning non wetting soil issues in WA

TrialCo innovation: introducing the modified inter-plot mower, created out of a couple of ex tip-shop mowers by our very talented team in the workshop this week 🙌 (patent pending!)

Newdegate grower Steve Thompson is on a mission to find the most effective surfactant strategy for his sandy non-wetting soils. He’s part of a two-year GRDC investment with TrialCo, testing out a range of popular surfactants and application methods. bit.ly/3jdcNyP ⬅️👀

Different mode of transport to get to today’s trial plots #shankspony #notmakingthatmistakeagain

Hmm, trickier than usual leaving the site after today’s weed counts....

Chipping weeds isn't new... But a new tool gives the age-old chipping hoe approach a modern twist! Using optical weed detection technology and mechanisation, researchers have created a non-herbicide tactic to tackle herbicide resistant weeds of any size: buff.ly/3fYatZ0

Picked a few rocks after spraying yesterday and came across this very friendly little fella.

This trial is one of 5 non wetting soil sites looking at surfactant rates and application methods- the others are in Lake King, Newdegate, Nyabing and Bulyee. Year 2 of the project. Chalk and cheese starts to the seasons huh! #grdc
