Bulletins 4000 -

This edition of the 2021 Crop Sowing Guide includes the major crops grown in WA - wheat, barley, canola, oat, lupins and pulses. The publication aims to provide information to support growers with decisions on the best choice of variety for each of the major crops for the upcoming season. The lupin and pulse sections also include an agronomy guide summary to support management decisions required for these high-valued crops. Market feedback for barley has been provided by GIWA to help with the decision on what to grow.

Benchmarking crop yields against nitrogen (N) input levels can help provide opportunities to improve N ferti-lizer efficiency and reduce N losses on maize in the US Corn Belt by identifying fields most likely to benefit from improved N management practices. Here, we evaluated a large producer database that includes field-level data on yield and applied N inputs from 9280 irrigated and rainfed fields over a 7-year period (2009–2015) in Nebraska (USA). A spatial framework, based on technology extrapolation domains, was used to cluster each field into spatial units with similar climate and soil type that represent 1.3 million ha of …


El Fríjol (Vigna Unguiculata Y Phaseolus Vulgaris) Como Alternativa Para La Diversificación Agrícola En Yopal, Casanare, Duber Alejandro Pinto Ramírez Jan 2020

El Fríjol (Vigna Unguiculata Y Phaseolus Vulgaris) Como Alternativa Para La Diversificación Agrícola En Yopal, Casanare, Duber Alejandro Pinto Ramírez

Ingeniería Agronómica

El proyecto implementó una parcela demostrativa de 1.200 m², que incluyó manejo agronómico (plagas, enfermedades, arvenses, fertilización), la transformación de 2.270 kg del material vegetal en silo, y la comercialización del mismo con precio de referencia de 350 $ / kg, como alternativa de agronegocio a una Unidad Agrícola Familiar (UAF). Por otra parte, el objetivo del componente investigativo fue evaluar el efecto de tres densidades de siembra del fríjol rojo cuarentano (Phaseolus vulgaris) en la producción de grano, a través de la medición de parámetros de rendimiento; número de vainas por planta, número semillas por vaina, masa de 100 …
