2012 Syngenta Barley Crop Enhancement TrialTo assess the crop enhancement effects of Moddus Evo and Amistar Xtra when used in combination. Whilst Moddus Evo is a PGR that is pending registration for anti-lodging and Amistar Xtra is a superior fungicide both these products have been shown to individually contribute to yield increases beyond anti lodging and disease control respectively. In addition trial work has previously shown the combination of these two products to be synergistic with respect to the crop enhancement affect. The aim of this trial was to explore these affects in more detail. |

2013 Syngenta Barley Fungicide & Plant Growth Regulator Trial – Conmurra,SATo assess the yield of the plant growth regulator (PGR), Moddus Evo and foliar fungicides Amistar Xtra, Cogito and experimental in furrow fungicide SYNSIF1 when used in barley. Previous work has shown that when combining PGRs with good quality fungicides yield and return on investment can be significantly enhanced in cereal crops grown in high rainfall environments. The aim of this trial was to explore these affects in more detail. |

Increasing Precision Agricultural Awareness and Adoption in South East of South AustraliaThe aim of the project was to increase the understanding and awareness of how spatial measurement tools (EM38 mapping, Imagery data, RTK Elevation Data & Yield Mapping) can be utilised to identify variations in soil capabilities & to then demonstrate how management can potentially be changed over these areas & the economics of implementing these changes.4 of the 6 sites were looking at changes in Nitrogen management over the demonstration paddocks, another site focussed on varying rates of gypsum & the final site looked at seeding rates & varieties in broad beans. |
