Mr Weidemann said the guide – Growing Australian Grain: Safely managing risks with crop inputs and grain on-farm – took 3½ years to develop with the presidents of all of Australia's grain representative organisations.
"What we do on-farm today has wide implications, with consumers wanting to know more about how their food is grown and what happens during the production process," he said.
"We examined each step in the on-farm cropping cycle, identified the risks and responsibilities involved, then produced a checklist that individual graingrowers can use or adapt to suit their farm."
