The cake volume and biscuit spread ratio of off-grade Australian Noodle Wheat (ANW2) and Australian Soft (ASFT) are comparable to that of North American Soft White Wheat (SWW). There is export market potential for Australian soft-grained wheat to Asia to meet the growing demand for soft wheat....

A yield benefit up to 0.2t/ha was gained in the first season after treating shallow ironstone areas with a rock crushing machine. Individual plot yield data and in-season monitoring showed that on areas where ironstone sheet was less than 3cm deep the treated plots outperformed untreated plots. Where the ironstone sheet was deeper than 5cm, dry mat...

Sodic soil in low-rainfall areas of WA are constrained by soil alkalinity and sodicity, which both increase soil dispersion. In a pot experiment, application of elemental sulfur decreased the chemical constraints in a sodic soil by lowering soil pH from 8.5 to 6.9, and by producing gypsum, both of which helped to restore soil structure and reduce s...

Depth of sowing is critical and difficult to control on deep ripped/cultivated heavy-textured soils. Crop establishment was negatively affected by the deep ripping treatments, mainly due to cloddy seedbeds and furrow infill. Wide row spacing (60 cm) has no yield benefits over narrow row spacing (30 cm), and treatments effects depend on seasonal var...
