Key Points
The Land Management Index (LMI) is a simple tool to help farmers and consultants predict changes in soil quality based on soil and crop management information. The LMI allows farmers to:
- predict the current condition of their soils and the likely effects of this condition on crop performance;
- explore the effects of changing their current soil management practices on soil quality before they apply them to a paddock.
The LMI is currently being released to farmers and industry via training days.
