ABA Projects
The Bureau’s governing body, the Advisory Board of Agriculture, is committed to fostering and developing targeted information and research programs for South Australian farmer groups.
A number of projects are under way at any given time, such as statewide and regional programs funded by the National Landcare Program, along with local projects run by Bureau branches. Many of these local programs are run with the help of funds from the Bureau Project Fund.

Better Soils
Better Soils was an initiative of the Agricultural Bureau of South Australia. Launched in 1997, it was a skills development and learning program to improve farmers' knowledge and adoption of good soil management practices.
The project has now finished, but its findings and reports have been collected on a website to benefit all primary producers.
A DVD of the project findings is also available by calling (08) 8226 0351 or you can download an order form and post of fax it back.
