Abstract: The project funded the development of a MIDAS model representative of the Great Southern region. Pasture growth in the model approximates simulation modelling whereby pasture availability is dependent on grazing intensity in the previous time period. Similarly sheep liveweight and production parameters are variable in response to feed availability in each period. The model has been used to examine: the relative profitability of cropping and livestock; and the best rotations for each soil class.
