  • Irrigated districts have had a great start to the season, with an early wet up to catchments. • Forecasts remain for a wetter SNSW and for wetter Victorian catchments. Forecasts are split between wetter and neutral for the Victorian plains. • The Pacific Ocean shows some chance of becoming a La Niña, where the Indian Ocean must do a 180-degree fl...

  High yielding cereals and canola – with a good start to the season, what management practices still need to be considered?

  Tony Napier (NSW DPI)

  • To develop a nitrogen topdressing strategy you need to have a target yield and get the timing right. • Allow approximately 40kg N/ha for every tonne of wheat grain yield and 75kg N/ha for every tonne of canola grain yield. • Stripe rust in wheat and sclerotinia in canola are significant diseases and growers will need to consider an appropriate fu...
