Influence of nitrogen application on the need for disease management in malting barley - Wimmera locations
Aims

To establish the interaction between nitrogen and timing and the need for fungicide management.

Key messages
  • However, the influence of seedbed N application (50kg/ha N) was evident in the crop structure scores, producing 150-200 more shoots/m2 and producing higher readings when the crop sensor Greenseeker® was passed over the trial than the GS30 stem elongation timing or the zero nitrogen controls.
  • Despite a relatively low soil nitrogen reserve at sowing (43 kg/ha N 0-100cm), there was no influence of nitrogen on yield.
  • In a trial subject to low levels of spot form of net blotch (SFNB), there was no response to fungicide over the untreated.
