Groundwater Study Of The Nyabing Townsite, Louise Hopgood
Resource management technical reports
A groundwater study was carried out in the townsite of Nyabing, Western Australia. The study presents a model of the hydrogeology below the town and defines management options to help limit damage to infrastructure from surface water and groundwater rise. A drilling program and expansion of the network of monitoring bores were also part of the study.

Managing Blackleg : A Grower's Guide To Minimising Risk From Blackleg Disease Of Canola In Western Australia, Department Of Agriculture And Food, Western Australia
Bulletins 4000 -
Blackleg is spread primarily by wind, with the heaviest spore fall out normally occurring within 500 metres of any canola residue. Each year canola residue continues to produce blackleg spores at a diminishing rate until the stubble has completely broken down (see Diagram 2). In WA this breakdown could take up to 4 years, and so the recommendations are for long rotations.
The blackleg fungus can attack all the aerial parts of the plant. While leaf infection is the most obvious symptom, high levels of leaf infections do not necessarily indicate that major losses will occur from blackleg. It is …

As Iraq enters a new phase in its history, Australia is poised to play a leading role in the reconstruction of Iraq's agricultural sector. Initially, food security will be the main priority with later phases of the development process concentrating on harnessing agriculture as an engine for economic growth and poverty alleviation.
Western Australia has a long tradition of supplying countries of the Middle East with high quality foodstuffs and in implementing agricultural development projects. The Middle East is one of Western Australia's key trading partners, consuming an annual food production valued in excess of $1 billion. In recent times, …
Published Salinity Information And Wa Farmers. An Investigation Into The Effectiveness Of Current Published Salinity Information, Stephen Lloyd
Published Salinity Information And Wa Farmers. An Investigation Into The Effectiveness Of Current Published Salinity Information, Stephen Lloyd
Agriculture reports
Salinity is one of the greatest environmental threats facing Western Australia. Extension of salinity information to WA farmers is a key process in helping the rural community manage this threat. Published information is an important part of this extension. However, there has been very little research into the use and effectiveness of published salinity information. The aim of this study was to investigate:
• Effectiveness of current salinity information products and services in relation to decision making and practice change by WA farmers;
• Possible improvement in salinity publications to better assist WA farmers in decision making and practice change.
