The aim of the Building Soil Carbon project is to reverse the decline in soil carbon levels in irrigated soils in the Murray Valley.

​This project will be completed over two stages:
  • ​Stage 1 involves evaluating the suitability of a range of pasture legume varieties.
  • Stage 2 will determine the most cost-effective way of ameliorating any soil constraints limiting pasture production
By completing this survey ​you will be contributing the direction of the project and help us get results relevant to the region.

Question Title

* 1. Have you grown irrigated pasture in the last 5 years?

Question Title

* 2. If so, what pasture species / varieties did you sow?

Question Title

* 3. On a scale of 0-5, how well would you say you understand your soil characteristics?

0 = minimal understanding 5 = excellent understanding

The information collected in this survey will be used solely for the purpose of managing and reporting on the Building Soil Carbon project. The detailed information will remain with Murray Local Land Services and will not be provided to any third parties. Only summarised data will be communicated for reporting purposes.

Thank you for taking the time to participate in this survey.
We really appreciate your input on the project.
