Frost is a part of the climate that many agriculture industries observe and monitor. For the stone fruit industry chill time is required, but for other like grains, wine and avocados, frost can have devastating consequences.
In this episode Agriculture Victoria Seasonal Risk Agronomist, Dale Grey, and SARDI Science Leader in Climate Adaptions, Peter Hayman, take us through the fundamentals of frost, how damage occurs and what the future holds for frost in south eastern Australia.
Resources and information from the GRDC frost initiative can be helpful for managing frost risk.
