Wheat Yield Potential And Land Management Constraints In The South West Of Western Australia, Dennis Van Gool
Wheat Yield Potential And Land Management Constraints In The South West Of Western Australia, Dennis Van Gool
Resource management technical reports
This report provides the underpinning information to help improve the long term profitability of wheat cropping. It documents the realistic potential yield of the 18 million hectares of agricultural land in the South West of Western Australia and the gap between this potential and the actual yields, based on shire averages. This report also summarises major land management constraints that limit the yield potential. This information can be used to aid strategic planning at different levels, for example state, shire and, with care, as a starting point for farm planning.

We undertook three main studies during the Greener Pastures project:
1. From mid 2005 to late 2008, a farming systems study was undertaken with five rates of nitrogen fertiliser as the main treatment. This study will be referred to as the ‘nitrogen response farmlets’.
2. From 2006 to 2008 a series of smaller ‘supporting’ studies were completed to investigate how grazing management influences the pasture production gains from nitrogen fertiliser. This will be referred to as the ‘nitrogen by growth-stage study’.
3. From early 2009 to early 2010, a farming systems study was undertaken to investigate the potential to increase …

Journal of the Department of Agriculture, Western Australia, Series 4
Sweet crunchy carrots, luscious strawberries at very reasonable prices, crisp green vegetables - these are just a few of the horticultural products that Western Australians take for granted and eat almost every day. But is their future availability guaranteed as population grows, suburbia spreads and environmental concern increases?
The Mobrup Catchment Working Plan - A Resource Inventory And Strategies, Steven Garrad
The Mobrup Catchment Working Plan - A Resource Inventory And Strategies, Steven Garrad
Soil conservation survey collection
The Mobrup LCDC has persevered for three years with its efforts to produce a catchment plan. They readily acknowledge that their work is just beginning as they now wrestle with this working plan to form something which will have application on each individual's enterprise to ensure a sustainable future for this catchment.This report is a collation of their ideas, an inventory of works done in the catchment and the best advice which research and local knowledge can provide.
