Full description

The research objective is to develop reliable ‘Yardstick’ information that will enable growers to make decisions on management packages and crop types using rules of thumb that suit their farming systems by April 2020.
Field walks were held during the year to observe and extend the information from the trials.
In 2018 the trials consisted of three crop types – Wheat, Barley and Canola, and four tailored nutrition packages to target expected yield with Decile 1,4 or 7 rainfall. There was also a “Play the Season” treatment that was managed based on the grower’s expectations of the current season.
In 2019 the trials were reduced to two crop types – Wheat and Barley, and four tailored nutrition packages to target expected yield with Decile 1,4 or 7 rainfall. Reducing the number of crop types meant that the number of varieties of each type could be increased from two to four.
