Sandy soils: What next?
June 24, 2025 · 16 min
GRDC, CSIRO and University of South Australia have done a lot of work on how to deal with the sandy soil situation. Hot off the back of a huge investment, culminating in a series of workshops in 2023, they're scaling up, taking the machines and expertise to more than 20 farms across the southern region. It's a project with a great deal of grower involvement and targeted to making that sandy stuff work for growers, not against them. In this podcast we speak to CSIRO research team leader, Therese McBeath and South Australian grower Andrew Thomas.  Contact: Therese McBeath, CSIRO therese.mcbeath@csiro.au    More  Information: Practical guidelines for sustained productivity in sandy soils     Project Investment Code: CSP2403-017RTX  Learn more about your ad choices.
