Communication Networks And The Adoption Of Three Farn Practices, P. W. Fry, F. K. Goss
Communication Networks And The Adoption Of Three Farn Practices, P. W. Fry, F. K. Goss
All other publications
The report commences with a discussion of the diffusion and adoption model, and illustrates some of the research observations and practical outcomes that have emerged in recent years, An overview of social network research is presented as a means of understanding communication exchanges and providing data relevant to the diffusion debate. The communication and adoption studies are then reported in three separate sections in the order they were conducted. (A map of the location of the survey areas is shown in Figure I ) . The objectives, survey method, results and a summary are presented for each study.

Options For Machinery And Labour, A F. Herbert
Options For Machinery And Labour, A F. Herbert
Journal of the Department of Agriculture, Western Australia, Series 4
Machinery is one of the highest costs in farming today. It is not unusual for capital investment in machinery to be 20 to 30 percent of the total investment in the farm.
On an annual basis, expenditure directly attributable to machinery can be 40 per cent or more.
This article cannon be a panacea for everyone to reduce machinery costs - each farm is different. But some of the issues might be of help.

The aim was for the 170 attenders to define how much productivity increases could help farmers in the main rural industries, and what size increases are likely in the foreseeable future (especially the next 5 years recommend feasible Government and industry action to stimulate increases in farm productivity.
Why New Land Farmers Need A Super Bounty, Edgar Noel Fitzpatrick
Why New Land Farmers Need A Super Bounty, Edgar Noel Fitzpatrick
Journal of the Department of Agriculture, Western Australia, Series 4
Development of farming land in Western A ustralia's agricultural areas requires the application of large amounts of superphosphate. Since 1963, the Phosphate Fertiliser Bounty applied to superphosphate manufacture has ensured that this superphosphate has been available to farmers at reasonable cost and has helped to make new land development economically worth while.
Originally applied as an incentive to agricultural development, the bounty is now to be withdrawn and it is feared that the resulting increase in the cost of superphosphate will retard development of many West Australian farms and reduce many farm incomes to an unsatisfactory level.
These effects will …

Farm Operations Management, H E. Fels, A. W. Hogstrom
Journal of the Department of Agriculture, Western Australia, Series 4
The main defence of Australian farmers against the cost-price squeeze has been to increase productivity. The tendency is to run more and more stock per man and to grow more crop per man.
Some farmers run unusually large numbers of animal units per man-year.
The operations of 16 such farmers over one year were examined to find out whether it had been profitable for them to reduce labour inputs to such an extent.

The Outlook For Barley, P J. Hackett, E. J. O'Loughlin
Journal of the Department of Agriculture, Western Australia, Series 4
World production of barley in 1968 was 4,107 million bushels—an increase of 7 per cent, on the previous year.
Further increases are estimated for the 1969 season, especially in Canada and France. World production is expected to be 3 per cent, higher than in 1968.

The 1964 Ord River Cotton Crop, G D. Oliver, A. W. Hogstrom
Journal of the Department of Agriculture, Western Australia, Series 4
IN November-December, 1963, the first five farmers allocated land in the Ord River Irrigation Area planted their first crop of cotton, which is expected to be the major crop grown in the area.
The crop was harvested in May-June, 1964, and has since been sold.

Preparation Of Vegetables For Market, James P. Fallon
Journal of the Department of Agriculture, Western Australia, Series 4
PROFITS in commercial vegetable growing depend as much on proper harvesting, handling and marketing as on good production practices.
Many gardeners who are experts as producers are perhaps not so expert in presenting their produce in a manner which will command the most favourable return.
