We learned about wheat production in Australia on Thursday. Fields stretching as far as the eye can see and machinery to match. In a fascinating and often amusing talk club member Bryce Weir described how Australia produces 15% of the world’s wheat, mainly for consumption in South East Asia, and how the production is under threat from increasing temperatures, unpredictable rainfall and falling yields. He explained how the Australians are pioneering research to increase production through technology, new breeds of wheat and smarter fertilization and irrigation.
Join us on Thursday evenings, 6 for 6.30 at the Park Hotel, Kilmarnock.
