Harvesting Methods In South Coastal, High Rainfall Crops, Richard Snowball
Harvesting Methods In South Coastal, High Rainfall Crops, Richard Snowball
Division of Plant Research : Technical Report Series
Results of trials carried out in south-western Australia over the past three years have shown that swathing or windrowing cereal and legume crops can result in significant advantages to growers.Swathing barley, wheat and oat crops at Mt. Barker resulted in large yield advantages over direct harvesting of standing crops. This was a result of overcoming shedding losses in the standing crop caused by strong wind and rain. Grain quality of barley and oats was not significantly affected by swathing, however, the quality of swathed wheat was sometimes worse than direct harvested grain if the harvest was delayed.Swathing cereals at Newdegate …

Nitrogen Fertiliser Use For Cereal Hay Production, M G. Mason
Division of Plant Research : Technical Report Series
Aspects of the effect of nitrogen fertilizers on cereal hay production in twenty-one experiments carried out over eight seasons were investigated.Areas investigated include the effects of rate and time of application of nitrogen fertilizer, sowing rate, date of sowing, crop species and variety and time of cutting on cereal hay yield, nitrogen content and digestibility.Response to nitrogen fertilizers in hay and grain production varied but profitable responses were more common, and optimum rates were higher for hay than for grain. Average optimum rates for hay were 51 to 88 kg nitrogenha-1 and for grain 0 to 44 kg nitrogen ha-1. …

Serradella Prospects At Esperance, Michael D A Bolland
Serradella Prospects At Esperance, Michael D A Bolland
Journal of the Department of Agriculture, Western Australia, Series 4
Yellow serradells is a promising introduced annual legume suitable for some of Western Australia's well drained sandy acid soils where other pasture legumes failto persist.
In the Esperance area serradella grows siccessfully on some sandy soils more than 0.5 metres deep. I develops deep roots rapidly - up to three times deeper than subterranean clover - and this is probably the main reason for its persistance.
At present only two late maturing, registered serradella cultivars are available to farmers in southern Australia. This article describes research at Esperance to delect earlier flowering cultivars for persistence in areas with less than …

Using The Zadoks Growth Scale, M W. Perry, D. G. Bowran, G. Brown
Journal of the Department of Agriculture, Western Australia, Series 4
The Zadoks growth scale, which is already used overseas as an aid to better crop management, is gradually being adopted in crop production in Western Australia.
By using the scale grain growers are able to identify the various stages of crop development, particularily those growth stages that are closely related to practices such as crop spraying where treatment too early or too late may be ineffective or damaging.
Swathing Field Crops In The South-West, R Snowball
Swathing Field Crops In The South-West, R Snowball
Journal of the Department of Agriculture, Western Australia, Series 4
Swathing is a long established method of haarvesting field crops, especially in parts of Europe and North America. It involves cutting the crop when the seed is nearly mature and laying it in a swath or windrow to dry. when the crop has dried it is harvested using conventional harvesting machinery with a pick-up attatchment.
On the Eyre Peninsula of South Australia, an area prone to strong moist sea breezes, swathing barley is a common practice. More farmers along Western Australia's south coast are also swathing barley to reduce losses from conventional harvesting. Pod shattering losses of lupins and field …
