In this episode of the MSF Farm Talk podcast, Chris McDonough talks with Philip Johns about the ongoing issues of dry saline land in Australian agriculture. Philip shares his 40 years of experience in managing such land by maintaining cover, using more salt-tolerant crops, and managing livestock effectively.
Philip highlights the importance of cover, the challenges of maintaining it, and practical strategies such as using Dorper sheep and avoiding set stock grazing. He also discusses using bush paddocks for livestock during drought years and emphasises the importance of leaving stubble and straw on the land.
The episode concludes with Philip expressing hope for finding more practical solutions through ongoing project and trial work supported by the Australian government's Future Drought Fund.
