Low Rainfall Pasture Programme, M Ewing

Experimental Summaries - Plant Research

The Headquarters of dry land pasture project was transferred to Merredin from Perth for the 1980 season. The aim of the programme is to ascertain the place that legume pasture might play in the dryland farming system. It is aimed to test and introduce improved varieties of pasture species and develop management systems which will improve pasture production and persistence in the low rainfall areas of the wheatbelt. 1. Variety testing.

Hypovirulent strains and control of take-all 3a Esperance, 3b Newdegate. Results from the preliminary studies which commenced in 1978 have shown several interesting trends in the behaviour of the field inoculum of the take-all fungus (TAF). "Disease severity Assay" has emerged as a potentially useful assay of field soil. This assay reflects the level of disease severity (on a 0-5 scale) caused by the resident inoculum of the …
