To compare new and existing barley varieties and their response to different fungicides.
Key messages
This trial was severely impacted by both an acid subsoil layer and compaction zone, which has reduced yields significantly with the dry finish in September and October.
The best yielding barley varieties were Buloke and the imidazzilinone tolerant variety VBHT805, yeilding 0.95t/ha dn 1.04t/ha respectively.
