Replicated Single Row Evaluation., C. M. Saunders

Experimental Summaries - Plant Research

Trial 89AB12

Great Southern Agricultural Institute - Paddock B15

This trial was of similar design to the single row evaluation, except four replications and pesticide treatments were also included.
However the trial had to be abandoned due to severe phytotoxic responses seen in the medics due to repeated spraying of 'Lorsban' (used at recommended rates).
Intended to repeat this work in 1990, bulk seed where possible and to eventually assess these lines, under such conditions, in large plots.

Pasture Deterioration Trial, J. W. Bowden, R. J. Lunt

Experimental Summaries - Plant Research

Trial 89NA61

Location: Duranillin

In this site we would expect a very large response (40 to 50% ) to phosphorus.

History:

The site was chosen because of the patchy and poor pasture production. The poor areas tend to have more suckling clover than the good areas. The pasture was legume dominant.

Treatments were applied on April 16, 1989.

Trial 89MO49

Location: Tenderloin, Brand Highway, Regan's Ford.

History:

1987 Aroona wheat with 70 kg DAP and 3 kg CuSO4 at seeding followed by 60 urea at 3WAS and another 40 urea at 6WAS. Yield was about 1.7 to 1.8 t/ha;
1988 Gungurru lupins with 120 kg super and manganese/ha yielded 1.9 t/ha. 350-400 ml Roundup/ha and one cultivation prior to seeding.

Lupin cv. Gungurru sieved to uniform size and sown without inoculation. No basal fertilizers were applied as the soil had previously been treated with high rates of superphosphate, micro-nutrients and potassium. Muriate of potash topdressed on 18/8/89 at 100 kg/ha.

Rhizoctonia Control In Potatoes And Potato Resistance To Powdery Scab., R M. Floyd

Experimental Summaries - Plant Research

Trials : 88BY26, 88PE34, 88MD35

Control of Rhizoctonia solani infection of potato stems and daughter tubers was demonstrated by preplanting applications of tolclofos-methyl (RIZOLEX TM) to either cut or round seed tubers. Yield of tubers from cut seed treated with Rizolex was increased over that of cut seed cured before planting bu not when seed was cut and planted the same day. Crops grown from round seed treated with Rizolex yielded higher than from untreated round seed.

Surface sterilization of seed tubers with Sodium hypochlorite was effective in reducing stem damage but not in reducing daughter tuber sclerotes. This indicates …

Pasture Species Evaluation On Acid Wodjil Soil - Machine Sown Plots., Bradley Nutt

Experimental Summaries - Plant Research

Trial 89TS38

Location: East Latham

The very low seed yields are a reflection of the dry winter conditions experienced in 1989. The Rose (T. hirtum) and Cupped (T. cherli) clovers appear to be a more promising option for this difficult soil type compared to other species. Paros yellow serradella performed well considering the trial site is located in a very dry area. The burr medics would not be an option on these acidic soil types because of nodulation failure; which should become evident in the regenerating swards.
