In this episode of the MSF Farm Talk podcast, host Tanja Morgan is joined by zoning project regulars Peter Treloar Law and Sean Mason to discuss the impact of this exceptionally dry season on harvest data collection.

The episode emphasises the importance of gathering data to make informed decisions for the next season. The team also provides practical tips for ensuring equipment is ready for harvest and discusses the implications of different soil types, frost, and drought conditions on yields.

They highlight the significance of good record-keeping, monitoring nutrient balances, and the potential to reduce fertiliser inputs next year due to residual nutrients.

The podcast is supported by the SA Drought Resilience Adoption and Innovation Hub.
