Transportable weigh scales are currently located at Narrabri (NSW Ag.) and Dalby (QDPI). These units are very useful for measuring yields from trials located on cotton farms. This season the Narrabri set of scales was borrowed by Wendy O' May to measure yields in her trials at Emerald. Unfortunately, this arrangement proved unsatisfactory because the scales could not be returned in time for harvesting some of the early research and extension trials in the Namoi.
