Sustainable crop production is achieved by applying best management practices. We develop management packages that give growers the information they need for better control of profitability and quality. Packages include decision support software that provides a practical on-farm method of applying scientific knowledge to crop management. These tools help growers manage irrigation and fertiliser applications, optimise harvesting, and carry out rational disease and pest control.
