摘要
Declining soil organic matter, soil health and loss of natural fertility are major constraints to sustainability on Australian grain farms. Improved knowledge of soil health is required by those managing Australian soils- farmers. An extension program was delivered to Queensland grain growers in 2022/23 to develop participants' knowledge and their capacity to improve soil management. This program utilised Participatory Learning and Action Research, which combined a structured action learning approach that established on-farm participatory action research to start improving soil health. During the program over 70 properties selfassessed their soil health utilising their own soil data. Growers then identified their top priorities and new management practices they wanted to test in their paddocks. Deep placement of phosphorus was the highest rated priority and the management practice growers most wanted to test in their paddocks (49%). On-farm research sites were implemented to test and refine these practices on participants' properties.
