Body

Wet-season spelling of grazing land is a key recommendation for improving land condition to benefit sustainability, production and profit in agriculture. The Spelling Strategies project aims to improve the evidence base and modelling reliability underpinning such recommendations. In addition to two research sites, located at Clermont and Charters Towers, a producer demonstration site has been established south of Duaringa in Central Queensland, to monitor the capability of wet season spelling of poplar box woodland to achieve land condition maintenance . . . . .
