The GRDC national paddock survey project (BWD00025) of 250 paddocks for four years was designed to understand the basis behind the yield gap and generate the data necessary to construct a yield gap calculator....
-
This research aimed to assess the effect of combined pre-emergence herbicide treatments and wheat competition on the survival and seed production of annual ryegrass plants resistant to pre-emergence herbicides, in order to incorporate this tactic into integrated weed management programs and delay the evolution of pre-emergence herbicide resistance....
-
Two-year rotation trials were implemented at Calingiri, Dumbleyung and Grass Valley to investigate the most effective and profitable break crops in rotation with cereals (wheat) for growers with RLN and R. solani in the same paddock....
-
Seven trials were implemented in 2015 with the primary aim of evaluating the financial viability of new deep-ripping methods. It was hypothesised that the financial return from ripping would be increased by ripping to a greater depth using topsoil slotting and implementing a controlled traffic farming (CTF) system to improve longevity of the rippin...

A maximum residue limit or MRL is the maximum concentration of a residue resulting from the registered use of an agricultural chemical that is legally permitted or recognised as acceptable to be present in or on a food, agricultural commodity or animal feed....
-
This study investigated the possible use of a foliar fungicide to control loose smut in barley....
-
Western Australia produces about 60 per cent of Australia’s wheat exports. Foliar diseases remain a concern in wheat production and breeding for disease resistance is crucial to reduce yield vulnerability....
-
The aims of this study were to examine the potential role of mixed-species cropping systems in Australia, including intercrops and companion crops....
-
To determine differences in plant establishment (plants/m2), visual (subjective) plant vigour or biomass, windrowing maturity, plant height (cm) and grain yield (t/ha) production of four different hybrids across 11 different canola growing environments in Australia....
