Field Peas In The Wheatbelt, R J. French
Journal of the Department of Agriculture, Western Australia, Series 4
Plantings of lupins in the Western Australian wheatbelt increased rapidly in the late 1970s and early 980s as improved varieties became available and farmers realised the benefits to be gained from growing grain legumes. Grain legumes are useful not simply as alternative cash crops. They provide 'fixed' atmospheric nitrogewn to following cereal crops and act as a cleaning crop to break cereal disease cycles. They are also valuable sheep feed.
In 1975, throughout the wheatbelt, the Department of Agriculture began a comparison of several alternative legumes. The crops included field peas, faba beans, chickpeas, lentills and various vetches. Field peas …

Peanuts In The Ord, D L. Mcneil, D. W. Bennett
Peanuts In The Ord, D L. Mcneil, D. W. Bennett
Journal of the Department of Agriculture, Western Australia, Series 4
The peanut industry on the Ord River Irrigation Area is expected to gross about $1.9 million at the end of the decade, a tidy return for an industry that only started truly commercial plantings some six yesrs ago.
At present the Ord River Irrigation Area produces about 2.5 per cent of Australia's total production, but it hopes to increase this to 7 per cent. High yields and plantings on non-staining soils make peanuts one of the most succesful crops grown on the Ord.
Evaluation Of Repellent Seed Treatments And Effects On Early Corn Performance, Ann E. Koehler, Ron J. Johnson, Orvin C. Burnside, Stephen R. Lowry
Evaluation Of Repellent Seed Treatments And Effects On Early Corn Performance, Ann E. Koehler, Ron J. Johnson, Orvin C. Burnside, Stephen R. Lowry
Department of Agronomy and Horticulture: Faculty Publications
A combination of field, field enclosure, and germination chamber studies was used to evaluate the effects of methiocarb [3,5-dimethyl-4-(methylthio)phenol methylcarbamate] and thiram (tetramethylthiuram disulfide) repellent seed treatments on early corn performance. The thiram treatments used (0.08, 0.4,0.8,0.5,1.25, and 2.5% active ingredient by corn seed weight) had negligible effects on germination/emergence time or on com plant heights. The thiram treatments never reduced stand counts in comparison to controls, but apparently increased stand counts in some trials, particularly under wet conditions. The methiocarb treatments evaluated (0.5, 1.25, 2.5, and 5.0% active ingredient by corn seed weight) had only occasional effects on early …
