This project builds on a previous trial undertaken in the Lismore district to compare biological farming with conventional district practice on cropping and pasture production paddocks. The project will include follow up testing of a range of soil health indicators to compare the changes in soil condition and crop production that have resulted from changes implemented in management practices. Testing of soil parameters and crop performance will be compared to baseline data already established. This data will assist in establishing best management practices to increase soil health. This project is supported by funding from the Australian Government Department of Agriculture, Fisheries and Forestry under Australia’s Farming Future.
