Building capacity in effluent system design for dairy

The objective of this project is to provide certified accredited training for service providers in effluent (liquid waste and sewage) design and management, so that dairy farmers have access to qualified personnel to assist with their systems and ensure that effluent management is within Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) guidelines for each state.

New digital technologies for managing winegrape production and quality

This project will develop and field test a shortlist of digital technologies for grapegrowers that provide more accurate and faster measurements of yield, canopy structure, early detection of disease, and crop condition and composition. A recent study estimated that these benefits could potentially deliver a 25% improvement in the gross value of Australian agriculture.

Vine nutrition

The nutritional health of winegrape vines is usually measured through testing the plant petiole, the stalk that attaches a leaf to the plant stem, but results can take time to generate and may not be highly accurate. This project will develop a smartphone app to capture and analyse images of vine leaves, to rapidly assess nutritional status.
