University of Queensland researchers developed a method to quantify how wheat varieties capture and convert soil water. Experiments at UQ Gatton in 2024 and 2025 tested 36 wheat varieties planted at different densities using sensors and drones.
The technique could help identify drought-tolerant wheat varieties, a longer-term supply factor, but it has no immediate effect on wheat prices.
