1. Predicting, Mapping, and Understanding the Drivers of Grain Protein Content Variability – Utilising John Deere’s New Harvestlab 3000 Grain Sensing System

Grain protein content (GPC) is a key determinant of the prices that grain growers receive, and the rising cost of production is shifting management focus towards optimising this to maximise return on investment. In 2023, John Deere released the HarvestLab 3000TM Grain Sensing system in Australia for real-time, on-the-go measurement of protein, starch, and oil values for wheat, barley, and canola. However, while the uptake of these sensors is increasing, GPC maps are not available for... M.J. Tilse, P. Filippi, T. Bishop
