Aims

To investigate the effects of seeding rate and nitrogen rate on triticale.

Key messages
  • Triticale is very responsive to high inputs of seed and fertiliser.
  • Adequate fertiliser is needed to achieve protein levels above 10%.
  • In dry springs triticale yields are 10-15% below wheat, due to triticale’s longer grain filling period.
