Trial location(s) Buntine, WA
Barley agronomy for the Western region locations
Aims

To evaluate the response of eighteen barley lines for grain yield, grain quality and malting quality to changes in soil pH (due to liming).

Key messages

Reponse to barley lines in this trial was different to what was expeted based on past performance in acid soil CVT trials.
