The Soil Wealth ICP project has worked closely with the Australian vegetable industry since 2014 to help growers integrate technical R&D information on soil management and crop health into the production systems of vegetable farms.
Soil Wealth ICP is currently focusing on four priority areas identified by the vegetable industry:
- Soil health
- Cover crops, rotations and minimum till
- Consumer education
- Biology and microbiome
- Composting and soil
- Crop health
- Integrated pest, disease and weed management
- Genetics and new varieties
- Optimising inputs
- Nutrient use efficiency
- Waste
- Fuel
- Irrigation
- Carbon and climate
- Understanding policy, markets and methods of measurement
- Resilient production systems (adaptation)
- Mitigation.
