Introduction Southern Irrigation SOILpak aims to provide a range of best soil management practices to optimise crop and pasture yields. Soils used for irrigation in southern NSW are varied, and this manual identifies five main soil groups. Crop enterprises are also varied. The major irrigated farming systems considered in this manual are (a) rice/rice rotations, (b) summer cropping (excluding rice), (c) winter cropping, and (d) pastures. SOILpak concentrates on the skills needed to: • assess the condition of the soil with emphasis on the cultivation layer (0–10 cm) and the soil profile (0–100 cm) • understand the management options for maintaining or improving soil condition for a particular crop or pasture system. SOILpak does not aim to make the final decision for irrigators. Instead it provides soil management options which can assist irrigators to develop successful soil management strategies.
