Ed Scott grew up on a mixed farming property on SA’s Fleurieu Peninsula, but his path into agriculture wasn’t a straight line. In this #GRDCinConversation episode, Ed shares how the grains industry has evolved from treating soil as something to work around to seeing it as one of the biggest untapped opportunities in modern farming.

Another smashing delivery of the #GrainAutomate workshop this morning by Ed Scott @soilpED to a crowd of 120. We loved Ed’s footy analogy about building your dream team with layers - choose which layers to use and know the strengths of each layer!

Brilliant to have a great group of growers and advisors keen to learn more about soils with @VicNotill
Soils are more than a soil test, and soil tests are not always as they seem. Linking visual soil assessment with lab data is critical!
