SOWING THE SEED FOR A BRIGHTER FUTURE

Tasmania Crop Technology Centre (Hagley)

The Tasmania Crop Technology Centre is located in Hagley, northern Tasmania and was initially set up to showcase the GRDC’s Hyper Yielding Cereals Project trials. The site now hosts GRDC’s new Hyper Yielding Crops initiative, a four-year investment spanning five states – Victoria, South Australia, Tasmania, New South Wales and Western Australia. This project aims to push the economically attainable yield boundaries of wheat, barley and canola and growers are being invited to join the networks and host paddock-scale trials on their properties to enable a “seeing is believing” participatory approach to the research.
