About
Grains Research and Development Corporation awarded a contract to Planfarm Pty Ltd for exploring short-term on-farm grain storage as a strategy to improve harvest efficiency and reduce costs for Australian grain growers.
The contract covered analysis of available short-term storage options, generation of economic analysis to assess the financial benefits of adopting these systems, and the provision of practical guidance to support grower decision-making.
It specified objectives to keep harvesters operating at full capacity, minimise machinery depreciation, reduce fuel and labour costs, and lower the risk of grain quality losses due to adverse weather.
Findings were to be communicated through fact sheets, webinars, workshops, and regional grower updates to ensure growers had access to clear, evidence-based information.
The contract emphasised grower-facing extension and economic assessment, indicating a focus on practical adoption support delivered via multiple dissemination channels.
