Abstract
The department plays a major role in addressing the impact of frost on Western Australian (WA) growers through a combination of on-farm research and development activities, and online tools and advice.
We lead the management program of the Grains Research Development Corporation (GRDC) National Frost Initiative, which is an integrated program that addresses genetic, management and environmental approaches to mitigate the effects of frost.
The objective is to provide the Australian grains industry with targeted research, development, and extension solutions to manage the impact of frost and minimise seasonal profit variability.
