Copper Requirements For The South-Eastern Wheatbelt, D J. Gilbey, K. D. Greathead, J. W. Gartrell
Copper Requirements For The South-Eastern Wheatbelt, D J. Gilbey, K. D. Greathead, J. W. Gartrell
Journal of the Department of Agriculture, Western Australia, Series 4
FARM experience and the results of five years intensive research have shown copper deficiency to be widespread in the south-eastern wheatbelt.
On many areas of the south-eastern wheatbelt, copper deficiency is likely to restrict wheat yields.
Growing Barley For Grain In Western Australia : Barley Quality, J A. Parish
Growing Barley For Grain In Western Australia : Barley Quality, J A. Parish
Journal of the Department of Agriculture, Western Australia, Series 4
Plumpness and absence of pinched grain are desirable for both malting and feed barley.
This is a brief discussion of various Quality standards in barley and how they may not be met.
Linseed : An Alternative Crop For The South Coast, R J. Doyle, R. J. Guyton
Linseed : An Alternative Crop For The South Coast, R J. Doyle, R. J. Guyton
Journal of the Department of Agriculture, Western Australia, Series 4
IN the over-17 inch rainfall zone of the south coast region of Western Australia animal production is the main farm enterprise.
Although farmers in the main cereal growing regions of W.A. crop about one-third of their cleared land each year, farmers in the south have been reluctant to crop more than about 12 per cent, of their cleared area.
Controll Of Eelworm Diseases Of Bananas In Western Australia : A Review, O M. Goss, M. G. Hawson
Controll Of Eelworm Diseases Of Bananas In Western Australia : A Review, O M. Goss, M. G. Hawson
Journal of the Department of Agriculture, Western Australia, Series 4
During the 1950's, a decline in bananas in plantations in Carnarvon, caused by heavy infestations of eelworms, prompted investigations into eelworm control.
The work was started in 1955. The results and recommendations based on experiments have been published in Department of Agriculture Bulletin 3532.

The 1965 Ord River Cotton Crop, G D. Oliver, A. W. Hogstrom
Journal of the Department of Agriculture, Western Australia, Series 4
THE financial results of 18 cotton growers in the Ord River Valley during the 1965 season were obtained during a survey conducted in August, 1965.
All farmers who have been allocated blocks and who grew cotton in 1965 were included in the survey.*
Take-All Of Wheat On The Esperance Downs : The Effect Of Multiple Cropping, S C. Chambers
Take-All Of Wheat On The Esperance Downs : The Effect Of Multiple Cropping, S C. Chambers
Journal of the Department of Agriculture, Western Australia, Series 4
A considerable increase in take-all occurred in the second crop of wheat following linseed, oats or vetches at the Esperance Downs Research Station.
THE take-all disease of wheat, caused by the fungus Ophiobolus graminis, has been responsible for many crop failures in the Esperance district during the past 15 years.
In an endeavour to find a practical solution to this problem, a crop rotation experiment was started in 1961 at the Esperance Downs Research Station.
Root Diseases In Wheat On Clover Ley : Factors Under Investigation. 5. The Evaluation Of Fungicidal Treatments, S C. Chambers
Root Diseases In Wheat On Clover Ley : Factors Under Investigation. 5. The Evaluation Of Fungicidal Treatments, S C. Chambers
Journal of the Department of Agriculture, Western Australia, Series 4
The use of fungicides, either as seed or soil dressings, for the control of root rotting diseases of wheat, was examined in a series of field experiments.
Results suggest that seed dressings have no effect on the incidence of root rotting fungi in the mature crop.
When fungicides were applied to the soil, a reduction in the incidence of take-all was noted in one experiment, but the same treatments had toxic effects on plants in a second similar experiment.
