Experimental Summaries - Plant Research

Trial 89AB12

Great Southern Agricultural Institute - Paddock B15

This trial was of similar design to the single row evaluation, except four replications and pesticide treatments were also included.
However the trial had to be abandoned due to severe phytotoxic responses seen in the medics due to repeated spraying of 'Lorsban' (used at recommended rates).
Intended to repeat this work in 1990, bulk seed where possible and to eventually assess these lines, under such conditions, in large plots.

Pasture Deterioration Trial, J. W. Bowden, R. J. Lunt

Experimental Summaries - Plant Research

Trial 89NA61

Location: Duranillin

In this site we would expect a very large response (40 to 50% ) to phosphorus.

History:

The site was chosen because of the patchy and poor pasture production. The poor areas tend to have more suckling clover than the good areas. The pasture was legume dominant.

Treatments were applied on April 16, 1989.
