Abstract

Trial 90SG8, 90SG9, 90ES9, 90ES11, 90MT8, 90KO2

Wheat variety * Time of sowing

Location: Salmon Gums Research Station, Mt. Ridley, East Gibson, Mt Barker Research Station, Kojaneerup Research Station

The aim is to define the optimum heading/flowering date on the South Coast. This trial also provides information on the performance of the varieties and new cross-breds at various sowing times.

Trial 90E10, 90ES12, 90ES13, 90ES14, 90ES15, 90ES16, 90SG10, 90SG11, 90MT10, 90KO3, 90KO4

Wheat protein on the South Coast

Location: Esperance Downs Research Station, Gibson, Neridup, Mt Ridley, Salmon Gums Research Station, Mt Barker Research Station, Kojaneerup Research Station

The Australian Wheat Board is concerned at the decline of grain protein in wheat throughout Australia, especially in the high rainfall areas. This project is examining means of increasing grain protein under high yielding conditions by understanding the influence of rotation (root disease), time of sowing, and nitrogen application.

Trial 90ES10

Wheat variety * Time of sowing.

Location: Neridup,

The aim is to define the optimum heading/flowering date on the South Coast. This trial also provides information on the performance of the varieties and new cross-breds at various sowing times.
