In this interview I am speaking with Dr Wal Anderson, a stalwart of Australian crop agronomy, who has been a research agronomist for nearly sixty years. He has worked across Australia and had many stints working for various overseas entities such as the Food & Agriculture Organisation. He has written more than 70 papers published in peer-reviewed, scientific journals, ten invited chapters in books and numerous extension articles for popular press and rural journals. He has also been a mentor for many early career researchers.
Although he has been retired since 2010, like many dedicated scientists he has kept up an interest in agriculture and politics.
Here we discuss a recently published review paper “Tactical Crop Management for improved productivity in winter dominant rainfall regions: a review”. Crop & Pasture Science, 2020, 71, 621–644
