In-crop nitrogen timing and product choice for wheat locations
Aims

To investigate in-crop nitrogen timing and product choice for wheat.

Key messages
  • As a result of very poor seasonal conditions, there was no response to nitrogen applied to Yitpi wheat at either Rupanyup or Hopetoun in 2006, despite very low soil nitrogen levels.
  • Delaying nitrogen application until after the end of tillering can allow a more accurate assessment of seasonal conditions to be made and money to be spent on nitrogen only if a response is likely.
