Impacts of
longwall subsidence on soil characteristics and wheat crop production at
Kestrel coal mine
This project follows on from a 3 year completed study that compared crop
yields and soil properties on subsided and comparable unsubsided lands above
longwall coal mines in central Queensland. Impacts of longwall subsidence on
plant production were evaluated using data on seedling emergence counts,
vegetative growth and biomass measurements, grain yield and protein and
moisture contents. These have been related to soil moisture and other soil
physical and chemical characteristics.
