Seasonal labour is the most profitable use of labour in broadacre crop dominant farms [PDF]
Labour scarcity and affordability have encouraged many farmers in Western Australia to focus more on cropping than sheep production. Many farmers are opting to run low input livestock systems.

Rainfall Variability and its Impact on Dryland Cropping in Victoria [PDF]
Conventional wisdom holds that rainfall variability represents a significant source of agriculture production risk. Surprisingly, there have been very few economic analyses exploring the link between rainfall variability and agriculture production.

A cost-effective approach to estimate plant available water capacity
GeodermaAccurately quantifying plant available water capacity (PAWC) of soil is important for maximising crop yields in dryland cropping systems, as PAWC positively correlates with crop yields.
