Compare potential yield loss for different crop problems

MyPaddock is a tool for visualising and comparing the level of different crop problems on yield in Western Australia.

MyPaddock alerts growers to production constraints by quantifying the potential yield loss via a traffic light system. It enables users to input their own data for individual paddocks including management practices, pest and disease test results, soil acidity levels, soil nutrition, soil compaction and weeds.

The tool enables a rapid interpretation of test results and field observations from a given paddock. You can use it to compare the intensity of constraints and its impact on yield. Once you know which constraints can affect your wheat yield the most, you can consider your options and take profitable decisions.

About 40 factors affecting wheat yield in WA have been included and these comprise nutrition, soil toxicity, soil physical, crop management, disease and weed levels.
