Do our current wheat varieties need different management to get the best performance from them.

At Yuna, frost in September affected grain yield and quality of the short maturity varieties but not the longer maturing varieties Magenta and Calingiri.

In a high yield potential season, seeding wheat at 60kg/ha gave a higher yield and gross margin than seeding at 30kg/ha; but there was no further benefit in going to 90kg/ha.

The challenge in low rainfall areas is to understand the influence of management on the genetic difference of varieties.

The following information is a summary of the presentation 'Farm machinery – understanding the true cost and getting the best value out of machinery' delivered by department economists at the 2015

The mean site yield was 1.4t/ha and there was no difference in yield between Mace and Hydra wheat.

Seed of Roundup ready (RR) and hybrid varieties can be up to 30 times more expensive than retained seed of open pollinated (OP) triazine tolerant (TT) varieties, so getting the seed rate right is e

This trial looked at the impact of plant density response in low rainfall canola. The trial found that birds preferentially attacked low density treatments and late maturing variety Hyola 450TT.
