Abstract: (En)
The research outcomes from this project indicate that farming systems based on annual medics in the low rainfall wheatbelt are viable and that pasture/crop rotations can be reasonably flexible to cope with changing economic circumstances. The 1:1 pasture:crop rotation is still considered to be the benchmark for comparing different systems. However, it is evident that provided some attention is given to managing medic seed banks the 1:1 rotation can be varied to incorporate longer pasture phases or two c
