SA grain growers to shape research investment
By Grains Research & Development Corporation (GRDC) This month, SA grain growers in the south-east of the state are invited to help direct how their levies should be invested in research, development and extension (RD&E) for the grains industry.

The formal concept design will feature soft-fall matting, holding pen reconfigurations, cattle yard roofing, sprinkler systems and rainwater harvesting. The upgrade is described as a once-in-a-generation project essential for our region’s agricultural sector. In the 2020-21 financial year the saleyards grossed a whopping $157 million in sales, transacting 86,000 head of sheep and 65,000 head of cattle. It’s an extremely important infrastructure investment needed for the Limestone Coast’s economy. Its current infrastructure is ageing. The District Council of Grant, who own this important asset, gained bipartisan support for their planned upgrades to the facility prior to the state election last year. Both the Labor and Liberal parties pledged funding to support this vital project. Obviously, with the Labor Party being successful in winning […]
