Introducing Whopper Cropper

What does Whopper Cropper do?
The information in Whopper Cropper enables crop management advisers and producers in the grain and cotton industries to make better crop management decisions. Farming is a risky business because of the effect of seasonal variability on crop yields and because of market uncertainty and other sources of risk.

Whopper Cropper combines seasonal climate forecasting with cropping systems modelling to predict the production risk that growers face in the coming cropping season. This helps producers to choose the best management options for the coming season. Future versions of Whopper Cropper will enable price and production risk to be combined so that the economic risk of alternative crop management options can be analysed.
