Wheat Yield Potential And Land Management Constraints In The South West Of Western Australia, Dennis Van Gool
Wheat Yield Potential And Land Management Constraints In The South West Of Western Australia, Dennis Van Gool
Resource management technical reports
This report provides the underpinning information to help improve the long term profitability of wheat cropping. It documents the realistic potential yield of the 18 million hectares of agricultural land in the South West of Western Australia and the gap between this potential and the actual yields, based on shire averages. This report also summarises major land management constraints that limit the yield potential. This information can be used to aid strategic planning at different levels, for example state, shire and, with care, as a starting point for farm planning.
