  Quantifying fertiliser phosphorus use efficiency in Vertosols across the Northern Region

  Understanding the fate of shallow or deep applied fertiliser P in Northern cropping systems is critical to inform grain growers on how much of their fertiliser P investment is actually "feeding the crop" and return on investment over time. …

  Measuring the effects on wheat grain protein and dough characteristics following legumes

  It has been identified that wheat sourced from paddocks where legumes were grown in the previous year have an improved baking quality, or dough rheology, compared to paddocks where other (non-leguminous) crops were grown. This is despite the…

  Increasing intrinsic heat tolerance of wheat through improved genetics in the source-sink relationship

  In wheat, high temperature accelerates leaf senescence and shortens the crop cycle - limiting the opportunity for plant photosynthesis and accumulation of carbohydrates in grains. Understanding the response of wheat to heat stress in the context of…

  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…
