Molybdenum Deficiency In The Wheatbelt, M M. Riley
Molybdenum Deficiency In The Wheatbelt, M M. Riley
Journal of the Department of Agriculture, Western Australia, Series 4
The trace element molybdenum is needed in very small amounts in nitrogen metabolisms of crops and pastures. One of the projects that started as a result of the overall soil acidity research programme was the examination of molybdenum deficiency on acid soils throughout the South-West of Western Australia.
Soil Acidity In The Eastern Wheatbelt, W M. Porter, I. R. Wilson
Soil Acidity In The Eastern Wheatbelt, W M. Porter, I. R. Wilson
Journal of the Department of Agriculture, Western Australia, Series 4
In Western Australia parts of the sandplain of the eastern wheatbelt are very acid and produce poor crops, It was not until the late 1970s that the effect of soil acidity on the productivity of the sandplain soils was examined in any detail.
Since then researchers have learnt a great deal about the nature of soil acidity in the eastern wheatbelt sandplain soils and can suggest management options for farmers.
This article discisses the problem of the very acid soils. It does not deal with the moderately acid, medium textured soils of the eastern wheatbelt. Although the acidity of these …
Barley Production And Soil Acidity, P J. Dolling, W. M. Porter
Barley Production And Soil Acidity, P J. Dolling, W. M. Porter
Journal of the Department of Agriculture, Western Australia, Series 4
One of the causes of reduced plant yields on acid soils is aluminium toxicity. because barley is extremely sensitive to this mineral, a project started last year to examine the influence of soil acidity on barley production in the main barley growing areas of Western Australia.
This article discusses some of the background information on the project and its aims.
Soil Acidity And Liming In The Lower Great Southern, R N. Glencross, M. G. Clarke
Soil Acidity And Liming In The Lower Great Southern, R N. Glencross, M. G. Clarke
Journal of the Department of Agriculture, Western Australia, Series 4
In the 375 to 750 millimetre rainfall area of the Lower Great Southern, reports of loss of subterranean clover from established pastures, reduced carrying capacity for sheep and increasing soil acidity lead to the establishment in 1981 of a research programme into the effects of soil acidity on pasture productivity in that region.

Oyster Spatfall In Virginia Rivers: 1983 Annual Summary, James Whitcomb
Oyster Spatfall In Virginia Rivers: 1983 Annual Summary, James Whitcomb
Reports
The Virginia Institute of Marine Science (VIMS) conducts weekly surveys from June through early October to obtain oyster spatfall information. Spat counts are made on oyster shells strung on wire and suspended from stakes on public and private beds. The number of spat on shells are counted each week of ~:he spawning season to determine the potential of a particular area for receiving a strike and to predict the most likely period tile strikes will occur. A moderate or heavy strike on shellstrings usually indicates a significant strike on exposed bottom clutch. This is especially true for clutch planted a …
Sulphur Needs Of Crops And Pastures, J S. Yeates
Sulphur Needs Of Crops And Pastures, J S. Yeates
Journal of the Department of Agriculture, Western Australia, Series 4
Sulphur deficiency has long been recognised as a potential problem of legume pastures in the higher rainfall areas (over 750 mm a year) of south-west Western Australia. Before the introduction of granulated superphosphate (about 1970), sulfer deficiencies commonly developed in spring on susceptible soils despite autumn applications of superphosphate (containing about 10.5 per cent sulphur).
In loww and medium rainfall areas sulphur deficiency is rarely reported, at least partly because of annual superphosphate applications. However large areas of the sandy-surfaced soils of Western Australia would become sulphur deficient for pastures and crops if sulphur inputsd in fertilisers were substantially reduced. …

Soil Improvement With Bauxite Residues, W H. Tacey, S. C. Ward, K. J. Summers, N. J. Barrow
Soil Improvement With Bauxite Residues, W H. Tacey, S. C. Ward, K. J. Summers, N. J. Barrow
Journal of the Department of Agriculture, Western Australia, Series 4
The sandy soils of the Peel-Harvey catchment hold water and nutrients very poorly. The Gavin ridges dry out quickly during rainless periods and this severely limits pasture growth. These ridges and the lower lying Joel and Coolup sands also lose a large proportion of the phosphorus, sulfer and potash fertilisers applied to them. Normally the sands lack clay materials to bind and hold the nutrients so rainfall leaches them out.
The Peel-Harvey Study Group, CSIRO, Alcoa and Murdock University have studied the use of a residue from bauxite mining to help overcome these problems. The treated residue has a texture …
Alternative Pasture Species For Deep Sands, D A. Nicholas
Alternative Pasture Species For Deep Sands, D A. Nicholas
Journal of the Department of Agriculture, Western Australia, Series 4
Although the climate of the swan coastal plain between Perth and Bunbury is suitable for growing a range of pasture species, some soil types greatly limit this range.
Pasture species commonly grown in the South-West, such as subteranean clover and annual ryegrass, can only be grown successfully on the better soils of the coastal plain - the loams, yellow sands and Joel sands. On the freely drained, deep, infertile Gavin sands such species rarely persist because of the soil's poor water holding capacity, and its water repellency and its poor ability to retain nutrients.
Alternative Land Uses, D A. Morrison, B. C. Mattinson
Alternative Land Uses, D A. Morrison, B. C. Mattinson
Journal of the Department of Agriculture, Western Australia, Series 4
One aproach to minimise the high nutrient content and associated algal pollution of the Peel-Harvey estuarine system is to reduce phosphorus losses at their source. Farmers can do this by changing land use is such a way thar phosphorus run-off fromthe catchment soils into drainage is prevented or at least reduced.
The department of Agriculture is investigating the economics of alternative uses, particularly substituting forestry with Pinus pinaster or Eucalyptus globulus (Tasmanian blue gum) for present beef and sheep enterprises. P. pinaster is used for logging and E. globulus for pulping.
Research Objectives In Vertebrate Pest Control, A J. Oliver
Research Objectives In Vertebrate Pest Control, A J. Oliver
Journal of the Department of Agriculture, Western Australia, Series 4
The European rabbit, introduced into Australia in 856 by an early settler for hunting, caused massive losses to agricultural production in Western Australia in 1940s and 1950s.
In those years most of the country's recources and efforts allocated to vertebrate pest problems were aimed at controlling this animal.
Research and control measures by Commonwealth and State agencies, including the introduction of myxomatosis, were largely responsible for reducing the rabbit problem to the comparatively minor one it is now.
Today, the Agricultural Protection Board is involved in the control of a much wider range of mammals and birds which cause losses …
Vegetation Changes In Four Study Areas At Indiana Dunes National Lakeshore, Kathryn Ann Kerr
Vegetation Changes In Four Study Areas At Indiana Dunes National Lakeshore, Kathryn Ann Kerr
Masters Theses
The sampling transects at Indiana Dunes were established to show the pre-burn condition of the vetetation and to monitor the long term effects of burning. However, one year of monitoring showed changes in vetetation that further substantiate the need for the burning program.
Miller Woods (Transect A) has burned frequently in recent years. The one year without fire showed little change in the herbaceous layer. The few notable herbaceous changes might indicate a transition to a more mesic community, but should be viewed skeptically because of the wet season in 1982.
Nearly half of the small shrub species at Miller …
Feral Donkeys : An Assessment Of Control In The Kimberley, S H. Wheeler
Feral Donkeys : An Assessment Of Control In The Kimberley, S H. Wheeler
Journal of the Department of Agriculture, Western Australia, Series 4
Feral donkeys are one of the major limitations to increased pastoral production in many parts of the Kimberley area of Western Australia, where they compete with cattle for food. In addition donkeys are aggressive animals, driving cattle from watering points and better grazing areas. They eliminate perenial plants by overgrazing and therefore reduce the carrying capacity of the range.
Originally introduced as draught animals, donkeys were released when cars arrived; since then they have bred up to large numbers in many areas.
For several years the Agricultural Protection Board has undertaken a programme of donkey shooting from helicopters. Since this …

Erforschung biologischer Ressourcen der Mongolei / Exploration into the Biological Resources of Mongolia, ISSN 0440-1298
Flea fauna in Mongolia is relatively unknown though the publications dealing with this problem are not few. The p·apers until 1966 are concerning ma.inly the territories delimited by natural plagua focis. Only in later periods, simu ltaneously with the intensive zoological research of the whole territory of the Mongolian People's Republic, the more detailed research of flea fauna on the whole territory takes place. The systematic research began thanks to the Mongolian-German and MongolianHungarian expeditions, the members of which have collected considerable parasitological material covering the part of northern, eastern and western Mongolia. Since the year 1970 the Soviet-Mongolian academic …
