• To determine the number of times cereals can be grazed without affecting yield.

The aim of this trial was to determine the effect of grazing (cutting) on grain yield of early sown wheat and triticale in comparison with uncut treatments.

To examine the effect of fodder cuts on grain yield of early sown wheat and triticale – Perth Tasmania

The aim of this investigation was to develop a means of enhancing stubble breakdown using nutrient supplements prior to planting of the next crop.

To compare early sown dual purpose wheat, barley, triticale and oat varieties for dry matter (DM) production, feed quality, recovery from grazing and grain yield.
 

To compare dry matter production, recovery and subsequent grain yield of 6 cereal varieties: wheat (Revenue), barley (Urambie, Henley and a French variety), triticale (Endeavour) and oats (Bass).

To assess dual purpose wheat, triticale and oat varieties for dry matter production, recovery from grazing and grain yield.

The aim of this trial was to assess dual purpose wheat, triticale and oat varieties for dry matter production, recovery from grazing and grain yield.
