Ouyen Deep Ripping Demos

Get a soil-level view of five of the leading deep rippers available in Australia in action at Mallee Sustainable Farming’s recent Deep Ripping Open Day at Ouyen, Victoria. MSF is working with farmers across the region as part of the GRDC Sandy Soils Project to monitor and measure the outcome of on-farm deep ripping trials throughout 2019.

Here, farmers can find valuable insights into our extension projects on things like seep management, soil salinity, sandy soil trials, deep ripping, water tables, cropping sustainability and more.

The new technology allows you to work through an interactive field day and simply click on the screen to pull up soil test results or crop monitoring data – all with a better visual understanding of the land they’re being delivered on. It also combats the growing time pressures faced by Australian farmers, saving you a significant amount of time, money and energy – leading to best use of your time – especially during daylight hours.

Project partners providing expertise and funding to make this happen include Frontier Farming Systems and the Mallee Catchment Management Authority with funding from the Australian Government’s National Landcare Program.

Anyone can view the library of virtual videos and field days, plus you can also subscribe to MSF’s YouTube Channel to get direct alerts as soon as new videos are uploaded and available to view.
