Determination Of Optimum Harvest Date For Winter Malting Quality Barley In Northwest Arkansas, Paul Wolf, David Moon, Richard Esten Mason
Determination Of Optimum Harvest Date For Winter Malting Quality Barley In Northwest Arkansas, Paul Wolf, David Moon, Richard Esten Mason
Discovery, The Student Journal of Dale Bumpers College of Agricultural, Food and Life Sciences
Due to the strict quality requirements, only 10% of worldwide barley is used for malting, though malting quality barley comes with a price increase of up to 50% or greater. With the craft brewery industry growing in Northwest Arkansas there is a growing demand for locally sourced malt quality barley. However, data are lacking regarding production practices for barley in Arkansas. The optimal harvest date for malting quality barley is at physiological maturity. This is because many of the malting traits (such as germination energy) decline as harvest is delayed, which make it difficult to meet the criteria for malting …

National And Regional Assessments Of Crop Yield Trends And Relative Production Efficiency : Theme 5.1. Land Use Change, Productivity And Diversification, David Stephens
Agriculture reports
National and regional assessment in Australia of relative production (yield) efficiency for wheat and other cereals providing estimates of biological production potential based on seasonal climatic conditions, compared with actual production values for selected historical dates between 1982 and 2000.
Don't Crop Areas Liable To Waterlogging, Department Of Agriculture, Western Australia
Don't Crop Areas Liable To Waterlogging, Department Of Agriculture, Western Australia
Journal of the Department of Agriculture, Western Australia, Series 4
The increasing areas of crops being sown in high rainfall districts make it likely that many crcp areas include sections liable to severe waterlogging.
This report presents results of a 1970 trial which clearly show that sowing such sections is not economic.

Recommended Crop Varieties : 1972, H M. Fisher
Journal of the Department of Agriculture, Western Australia, Series 4
RECOMMENDATIONS on crop varieties for 1972 continue to place emphasis on grain quality in relation to the requirements of overseas buyers. Gamenya, Falcon and Bokal wheats, Dampier and Beecher barleys, Swan oats and Kameniza linseed are the main varieties recommended.

Alternative Crops To Wheat : An Assessment, H M. Fisher
Journal of the Department of Agriculture, Western Australia, Series 4
INTRODUCTION of wheat production quotas in 1969 promoted widespread interest in suitable alternative crops.
The only other crops grown on a significant scale in W.A. were barley and oats and farmers were quick to substitute these cereals in their cropping programmes.

Grow Barley For Malt Or Feed, G B. Crosbie, J. A. Parish
Journal of the Department of Agriculture, Western Australia, Series 4
MALTING barley can be grown in certain areas receiving more than 13 inches annual rainfall, and farmers have to make a choice between growing barley for malt or feed in these areas.

Recommended Crop Varieties-1971/Vol11/Iss12, H M. Fisher
Journal of the Department of Agriculture, Western Australia, Series 4
Cereal and linseed varieties recommended for 1971 should give the best returns to growers and benefit the industry in general, The main varieties are Gamenya, Bokal and Darkan wheats, Dampier and Beecher barleys, Swan oats and Kameniza linseed.

Journal of the Department of Agriculture, Western Australia, Series 4
World production of barley in 1968 was 4,107 million bushels—an increase of 7 per cent, on the previous year.
Further increases are estimated for the 1969 season, especially in Canada and France. World production is expected to be 3 per cent, higher than in 1968.

Recommended Crop Varieties, Department Of Agriculture, Western Australia
Journal of the Department of Agriculture, Western Australia, Series 4
RESULTS of variety trials carried out in 1968 by the Department of Agriculture were considered by the State Wheat Advisory Committee and the State Coarse Grains Advisory Committee in making recommendations on leading varieties of wheat, oats and barley.
Details of the recommendations are set out below.
Recommendations on linseed varieties have been included in view of the growing significance of the industry and representations from farmers for consideration of this crop along with the cereals.

IN 1966 farmers in the cereal areas of Western Australia sowed approximately 6.5 million acres of wheat, 1.2 million acres of oats, and 0.4 million acres of barley (mainly six-row).
The extent to which these cereals were grown in the various statistical divisions of the State, together with the average yields is summarised in the Table below.
