Murex Medic Trials And Redlegged Earthmite Impacts, D. Gillespie Jan 1988

Murex Medic Trials And Redlegged Earthmite Impacts, D. Gillespie

Experimental Summaries - Plant Research

1. Selection and development of early maturing varieties of murex medic.

Small plot trials were established at six medium and low rainfall sites in autumn 1988. All were hand sown 2Mx3Mplots sown at 50 kg/ha except for the Merredin site which was drill sown at 10 kg/ha.

Locations: Badgebup, Gabalong, Kellerberrin, Merredin, North Quairading, Pingrup.

2. Mid season murex medic evaluation.

Locations: Avondale, Cranbrook, Darkan and New Norcia

This programme aims to identify superior varieties to Zodiac which was released in 1988.

3. Management of murex medic.

Locations: Arthur River

After three years of drought the large grazing trial at …

Location: Shire of Augusta-Margaret River, Shire of Elgin and Shire of Bridgetown-Greenbushes.

To quantify and identify insect and fungal losses of annual pasture production caused through seedling mortality and early production losses. Three sites in the Margaret River/Augusta Shire, one in the Elgin Shire and one in the Bridgetown Shire were used.
