Far Eastern Agricultural Research Group (FEAR)
Description
The Far East Ag Research (FEAR) Group, formally the Bodallin Catchment Group, aims to demonstrate sustainable farming practices for the future.
The group changed their name in 2014 to illustrate the direction the farmer-driven group is now taking. Completing revegetation work in the early days of establishment, the group now focuses on trials, field days and Crop Updates events.
The group is interested in soil health, stubble retention, the suitability of discs and tynes in the Yilgarn region, low rainfall pastures and crops, as well as cropping techniques for low rainfall regions.
