Phosphorus Levels And Disease On Lupins, J W. Bowden Jan 1987

Phosphorus Levels And Disease On Lupins, J W. Bowden

Experimental Summaries - Plant Research

Trial 87LG39 (81LG29) 87ME62

Location: Pingaring.

It has been suggested that high levels of phosphorus application to lupins can reduce the impact of leaf and root diseases. Two old rotation trials provided a range of disease burdens, across which phosphate rates on lupins were applied. Disease scores, vegetative yields, phosphorus concentration and seed yields were measured.

Trial 84M63

Residual value of phosphate fertilizers.

Location: South Carrabin Block of Merredin Research Station.

4th successive crop on new land. Trial has shown that the effectiveness of the different types of rock phosphate were about the fifth to one tenth as effective as the fresh (triple) superphosphate applied in 1984. The effectiveness of the superphosphate, decreased by 60 between year 1 and 2, and by a further 10-15% by 1987. This experiment will continue as pasture for 1988 and 1989, and will be re-cropped in 1990. The experiment is also assessing soil testing for P. but soil test data …
