Diversifying your crops can be an important decision and have a huge impact on your profit. Choosing which variety to plant in any given paddock will depend largely upon what kind of crop it would yield best for the sowing rates and time period. You also need to consider whether there are markets available for your crops with adequate supply levels.

Complex modern technology, fluctuating markets and unpredictable weather also affect your decision-making, furthering your need for careful planning and management to optimise productivity and profitability of your crop.
