Seed Priming involves soaking seed to the point where germination is unavoidable prior to sowing.

However, sowing primed seed presents several challenges.

In this @SAGrainTrust project, @SANoTill investigates the use of a belt seeder as a means to sow.

Great to be able to have a @AusLandcare fieldday to demonstrate the @aqua_till Jetacide at Dalby.

A big thank you to @ZronR and @drycotresassoc for making this happen between covid uncertainty and buckets of rain.

Disappointingly SANTFA has decided to cancel the 2021 Conference scheduled for the 2nd of August in Clare in light of the current covid restrictions.
The board is endeavouring to devise an alternative event and will advise in the coming weeks.
