Resource management technical reports
Report suggests that the area of land suitable for Townsville Stylo in the North Kimberley above the 750 mm rainfall isohyet is about 1.25 million hectares. The regions in which land suitable for Stylosanthes can be found are shown. A brief description of the suitability of the land systems of the region for Stylosanthes is given.

Tb87: Delivery Costs Per Package On Wholesale Milk Routes: A Comparison Of Two Methods Of Cost Allocation, Nicholas E. Flanders, Homer B. Metzger
Tb87: Delivery Costs Per Package On Wholesale Milk Routes: A Comparison Of Two Methods Of Cost Allocation, Nicholas E. Flanders, Homer B. Metzger
Technical Bulletins
This study of milk delivery operations was undertaken to develop labor relatives for different packages and to compare unit costs of delivery computed by using these relatives. A principal issue was whether variable direct labor was a better measure than total direct labor for allocating costs to various packages. Delivery operations on milk routes were timed to determine the amount of labor used in performing various functions in serving wholesale customers. This route information and the financial information on dealer delivery operations comprised the data base for the analyses.

Agricultural Development In The North Kimberley : Terms, Conditions And Farm Size Recommendations, D G. Wilcox, J Ripley, R F. Johnson
Agricultural Development In The North Kimberley : Terms, Conditions And Farm Size Recommendations, D G. Wilcox, J Ripley, R F. Johnson
Resource management technical reports
There are approximately 1,250,000 hectares of land in this area of Kimberley which may be sown to pastures such as Townsville Stylo, other Stylosanthes species or to other introduced pastures. The report recommends that grazing properties comprising 10,000 ha. of land capable of growing improved pastures, together with 60,000 ha. of native pasture land, should be established in the area. The economic size of the farm unit is 5,300 adult cattle equivalents.

Minimum Tillage For Crop Planting, Geoffrey A. Pearce
Journal of the Department of Agriculture, Western Australia, Series 4
this article is condensed from a report of studies of minimum tillage systems and research in the United Kingdom and North america during 1976.
The author, Mr Geoff Pearce, is a Senior Research Officer in the Department of Agriculture's Weed Agronomy Section. He has been associated with reduced tillage research in Western Australia for several years and undertook the study tour to gain the benefit of intensive overseas research on the subject.
Phosphorus Fertilisers For W.A. Farming, Michael D A Bolland
Phosphorus Fertilisers For W.A. Farming, Michael D A Bolland
Journal of the Department of Agriculture, Western Australia, Series 4
Phosphorus is one of the major nutrients essential to plants. Eithout the use of phosphorus fertilisers, few soils in Western Australian sagricultural areas would be agriculturaly productive.
Superphosphate has been the major source of phosphorus fertiliser used in W. A..
Now there is a possibility that the alternatives to superphosphate may be cheaper

Cost Of Farm Water Supplies : Conclusions From Surveys, I A F Laing
Journal of the Department of Agriculture, Western Australia, Series 4
The Department of Agriculture, in conjunction with the Farm Water Supply Advisory Committee, has conducted farm wster supply surveys in many districts in the wheatbelt.
The aim of the surveys was to collect data to assess the existing water supplies, the potential for further water supply developments and to compare the relative difficulty of water supply development in different localities.

Annual Dipping Is A Costly Business, F C. Wilkinson
Annual Dipping Is A Costly Business, F C. Wilkinson
Journal of the Department of Agriculture, Western Australia, Series 4
When sheep dipping was compulsory, lice infestations and their control could have been costing the sheep industry in Westrn Australi as much as $8 million a year.
On March 1, 1977 compulsory annual sheep dipping ended.
This raises the question of whether an owner should dip sheep.
Economics Of Farm Water Supplies, P P. Eckersley
Economics Of Farm Water Supplies, P P. Eckersley
Journal of the Department of Agriculture, Western Australia, Series 4
The economics of farm water supplies can be studied in two ways. One is to compare the costs of alternative ways of supplying a specified quantity of water to a farm. Another is to calcu;ate how mucha farmer can afford or will pay for a water supply.
I propose to look at these questions from the point of vieew of an eastern wheatbelt farmer, assuming that he must pay the full costs of any water supply provided for his property.
