Aims
To determine the ways in which different crop types influence available soil P and the P requirements of subsequently sown cereals
Key messages
Wheat yields were highest when grown after chickpeas or lupins at both low and moderate phosphorus (P) sites. Benefits provided by the previous chickpea or lupin crops could not be attributed to an increase in residual P sources alone.
No observed climate data available for this trial. Derived climate data is
determined from trial site location and national weather sources.
