With good water allocation this year many dairy farmers are getting ready to put summer fodder crops in. Over the past 2 years the ICC have been running summer fodder crop trials with Murray Dairy comparing the performance of maize and sorghum under different irrigation strategies, from fully irrigated through to low input, long-interval irrigations designed to stress the plants.
