A well-deserved recognition of Nick Poole's outstanding contribution to Australian grain research and extension.

Over more than two decades, Nick has helped bridge the gap between research and practical on-farm outcomes, supporting growers, advisers and industry across Australia's high-rainfall zones. His work through FAR Australia and numerous Grains Research and Development Corporation supported projects has left a lasting legacy for the grains industry.

Congratulations, Nick, and thank you for your dedication to applied research and the next generation of advisers.
