CONVERSATIONS WITH FARMERS – CASE STUDY 4 – Mark Branson
International study highlights PA value
A Nuffield Scholarship equipped Mark Branson with the knowledge required to further explore PA technologies on his farm.
Factsheet 2: Weed Sensing
Through funding from the South Australian Grain Industry Trust (SAGIT) Fund, as part of project SPAA115, we are thrilled to launch this new factsheet
The factsheet explains and examines the benefits and limitations of the different technologies for:
– Optical Spray Technology (OST) and
– In-crop Weed Sensing.
It also briefly highlights emerging technologies for incrop sensing and spraying such as the H-sensor.
The factsheet features a case study of Bulla Burra from the northern South Australian mallee and their case for an OST sprayer.

The Paddock Guide to PA Trials
This is a basic guide for farmers and consultants wanting to set up on-farm trials using precision agriculture (PA) equipment. It contains condensed information on the design, implementation, harvesting and analysis of PA style trials.
The paddock guide has been produced from the Agronomy Jigsaw, a collaboration between SEPWA, GRDC, Precision Agronomics Australia, Dept of Agriculture and Food (WA).
