Objectives

  • Better practices developed and adopted faster

Scope

The Practices LOB will achieve its objective by implementing four strategies: 

> identify and develop profitable, innovative and integrated practices and technologies 

> ensure active grain grower involvement and commitment 

> undertake targeted extension and adoption through appropriate delivery channels 

> enhance sustainable management of natural resources. 

These strategies will be implemented by investing in agronomy, soil, environmental management and crop protection. Results from these investments will be validated and integrated into farming systems, and grower programs will be developed to assist with their adoption.
