Unlocking the Power of Publicly Available Cropping Research
Australia’s state departments of agriculture have made it easier than ever for farmers, agronomists, and industry professionals to access research and insights that can guide on-farm decisions. A key development in 2025 is the launch of the new Cropping Systems Research Report Database on the NSW Department of Primary Industries and Regional Development (DPIRD) website.
This comprehensive database consolidates decades of trial work and agronomic reports, helping users explore cropping system results across New South Wales. You can browse trial data, findings, and recommendations from broadacre cropping experiments, including those focused on:
- Crop rotation and soil health
- Water efficiency and drought resilience
- Nutrient and fertilizer efficiency
- Integrated weed and pest management
Other State-Based Resources
For farmers across Australia, each state provides valuable research portals:
- Queensland: Qld Government Agriculture Datasets and Statewide Crop Monitoring
- Victoria: Agriculture Victoria Crops & Horticulture
- UQ QAAFI: Centre for Crop Science
How to Search and Interpret Research Effectively
- Use AI tools like ChatGPT to summarise and interpret scientific reports
- Identify relevant trials based on crop type, region, or issue
- Cross-reference multiple studies to spot trends and consensus
