To evaluate whether TwinN could enable reductions in urea rates without loss of yield in wheat in the medium-high rainfall Victorian wheat region.
Key messages
The trial was designed to test the capacity of TwinN to enable reductions in nitrogen fertiliser applications.
The control treatments showed no statistical difference in yield between 0 and 50 kg/ha urea but a difference was seen between 50 kg and 100 kg/ha ureas.
Yield from TwinN plus 75 kg/ha urea was not statistically differenent from that from the 100 kg/ha urea.
No treatment effects were found in protein% or screenings%.
