Trial details

Researcher(s) Brett Davey (SFS/TIAR)
Geoff Dean (SFS/TIAR)
Rob Howard (TIAR)
Year(s) 2008
Contributor Southern Farming Systems
Trial location(s) Symmons Plains, TAS
Wheat variety evaluation locations
Aims

To compare existing wheat varieties, evaluate new breeding material and to assess the disease responses of
germplasm (particularly stripe rust).

Key messages
  • Average grain yield from wheat varieties was 5.1 t/ha but due to differences in disease resistance there was a broad range from 6.9 to 1.6 t/ha.
  • For further take home messages please see the attached trial report.
