The Effect Of Nitrogen On Pastures And Subsequent Sheep Production., L. Cransberg Jan 1991

The Effect Of Nitrogen On Pastures And Subsequent Sheep Production., L. Cransberg

Experimental Summaries - Plant Research

Trial 89MT1

Location: Mt Barker Research Station

To measure the effect of autumn/winter application on:

1. Pasture growth rates and composition

2. Sheep production using pregnant/lacting ewes.

Trial 89KA6

Management systems for sheep.

Location: Kojonup

To measure the effects of set stocking and strip (rotation) grazing on:

1. Pasture production, composition and quality.

2. Sheep production (liveweight, condition score, wool growth rate, fibre diameter strength and vegetable matter contamination).


The Role Of Perennial Pasture Species For Increasing Sheep Production In The Medium Rainfall Zone Of W.A., C. M. Saunders Jan 1990

The Role Of Perennial Pasture Species For Increasing Sheep Production In The Medium Rainfall Zone Of W.A., C. M. Saunders

Experimental Summaries - Plant Research

Trials: 90AL33, 90AL34, 90ES56, 90ES57 and 90KA100

91KA117, 91KA116,

Locations: Green Range, Esperance, Pingrup, Katanning, Broomhill.

To examine the productivity and persistence of perennial grasses in the 350-800 mm rainfall zone of W.A.


The Grazing Value Of Medicago Murex., C. M. Saunders Jan 1989

The Grazing Value Of Medicago Murex., C. M. Saunders

Experimental Summaries - Plant Research

Trial 88KA92

Location: Potts Road, East Kojonup.

At present, limited information is available on the grazing value of Medicago murex cv. Zodiac on sheep live weights and wool growth. This trial was designed to provide data on the relative performance of sheep grazing Zodiac compared with the recommended subterranean clovers (Junee/Seaton Park) in the > 450mm rainfall zone in WA.


Sheep Production Systems On Mediterranean Annual Pastures., Department Of Agriculture, Western Australia. Jan 1987

Sheep Production Systems On Mediterranean Annual Pastures., Department Of Agriculture, Western Australia.

Experimental Summaries - Plant Research

Trial 84V2.

Location: Vasse Research Station

Aims: To define seasonal pasture production curves for three rainfall zones in Western Australia. To determine animal productivity under different production systems in response to seasonal pasture production. To provide Western Australian data useful for validation of sheep simulation models. To provide data for different production systems to increase the scope of the simulation models.
