Abstract

A three year trial at Curtin University’s Muresk Institute of Agriculture was established in early 1996 to determine, in part, if precision farming techniques could be used to improve farm profitability in this low input, low output Mediterranean environment. Three years records show marked variability in performance. Yields in some areas are consistently high or low, whilst performance in some areas varies dramatically between years. Options for practical management and further investigations are discussed.
