The Bodallin Catchment Group is an innovative, community-driven grower group that was formed due to farmers in the area wanting to come together to discuss localised agricultural issues and test practices with on-farm trials. The environment can be harsh when you’re farming east of Merredin and any farm practice that gives you ‘the edge’ in dry and windy conditions is worth adopting. trial; livestock; sheep; loam; erosion; weed
