Training and Demonstration of PA in Practice
Author: Nicole Dimos
Did we see you at our recent Header Set-up Workshops?

SPAA provided information on setting up your header to collect yield maps this harvest.

We covered topics including;
  • Data card management
  • Paddock descriptors
  • Sensors (flow and moisture)
  • Calibration
  • GPS signals
Thanks to all the farmers who bought their machines along to the workshops. It provided 200 landholders with first hand view of where to look for sensors and switches to look out for in setting up our machines.

Thanks also to John Deere, Case IH and New Holland for providing technical expertise at these workshops.



Training for Graingrowers now in 3 states

Continuing with a move toward Precision Agriculture, SPAA's new project now means that even more landholders and agronomist can learn about PA. This new project will work with Farming Systems Groups from Victoria and New South Wales.

We welcome participants from BCG, Riverine Plains, Farmlink and CWFS to our project.

In addition we continue towork with our South Australian Farming System Group partners including LEADA, EPARF, YPASG, Hart Field Site group, UNFS, MSFP and ABA (South East).
