SOWING THE SEED FOR A BRIGHTER FUTURE
SA Crop Technology Centre (Millicent)
The SA Crop Technology Centre was established in 2018 and is located in South Eastern SA High Rainfall Zone near Millicent. The centre currently hosts the GRDC’s new Hyper Yielding Crops (HYC) 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.
