🚨 We’ve listened to our members and industry and shifted the 2026 Australian Agronomy Conference to 24 -28 August 2026 in Darwin 🌴. aapevents.eventsair.com/aa2026/
Last week, a group of farmers attended our WA Farming Systems trial in LG. A side-by-side comparison of legacy effect, system breaks & N treatments sparked some great discussion. Thanks to Justine Tyson & LIFT group for an insightful day! @GRDCWest @DPIRDbroadacre #WAFSProject
Last week, we welcomed a group of farmers/consultants to our WA Farming Systems trial site at Lake Grace. A great conversation around soil, nitrogen, and systems break options. 📅 Save the date: September 9 for the LIFT group field walk. @DPIRDbroadacre @GRDCWest #WAFSProject
Some strong rotational and nitrogen treatment differences showing at the Northampton Farming Systems Trial site this week 🌾 🗓️ Save the date: Aug 20 — NAG Spring Field Walk. @DPIRDbroadacre @GRDCWest #WAFSProject

Saying that PhD students and postdoctoral associates are 'in training' so deserve less pay and non-employee status perpetuates an unethical and unsustainable system. We are ALL ""in training"". In fact, this infantilization of scientists follows them throughout their career.
