ACROSS THE FENCELINE
Real-time Soil Moisture Probe Data in Harden Murrumburrah
A time-tested way that farmers gather information to better manage their land is to look over the fence and see what their neighbours are doing. The Across the Fenceline initiative began in 1999 as a collaboration between HMLG, CSIRO and the Grains Research & Development Corporation.
This project provides local growers with real-time plant-available water measurements from soil moisture probes installed across the Harden district.
