  NGN - Management of barley lodging on the Darling Downs using plant growth regulators

  The profitability of growing barley on the Darling Downs (QLD) is often impacted by poor harvest efficacy due to lodging or shattering of heads prior to, or during harvest. Participants at the Brigalow Grower Group NGN Forum reported significant…

  Effective control of brome grass in the southern and western cropping zones

  Brome grass is a serious weed of many Australian cropping regions, but is widespread across the sandy soils of the low rainfall zones of WA, SA, Vic and southern NSW. It is estimated to cause $22.5M in loss of yield revenue annually across all…

  NGN - Demonstration of summer fallow weed management strategies to reduce input costs in soils of the Narromine region

  Summer fallow weeds cause large grain yield reductions in the following winter crop as they deplete soil water and nitrogen in the fallow phase, therefore limiting availability to crops. Additionally, fallow weeds can act as a 'green…
