What’s Happening? Reuben Mah from Soil CRC and the University of Tasmania was announced as the winner of Cooperative Research Australia’s Early Career Researcher (ECR) Competition for developing a portable, pocket-sized 3D-printed device that pairs with smartphone apps to allow farmers to quickly and accurately test their soil. Why It matters The research will help reduce the expenses and facilitate the timely process of current laboratory testing with farmers and agronomists (plant and soil scientists) already witnessing the benefits of the device, which optimises their soil fertility interventions for the best crop growth. By The Numbers High calibre entries from all five ECR Competition finalists suggested a strong pool of next-generation research experts for Australia. Earlier this evening, more than
