Wheat And Barley Experiments On The Kumarl Soils At Salmon Gums, D A. Collins, Michael D A Bolland, R D. Fletcher

Technical Bulletins

The water-holding capacity of these soils, and their location in a low rainfall area combine to make them marginal for producing grain. In contrast to sowing wheat on ley pasture, mechanically fallowing the year before planting markedly improved grain yields by 1.3 to 4 times.

Continuous Cereal Cropping With Alternative Tillage Systems In Western Australia, R J. Jarvis, N D. Delroy, A P. Hamblin

Technical Bulletins

In 1977, a ten year series of continuous cropping trials was commenced to compare the effect of four farm tillage systems. This bulletin reports the grain yield results for the first six years of these trials.
