Other trial notes |
There are 5 trials in total in the project, all similar in scale to the one at Appila.All have fully assessed the impact of one and two year breaks on wheat production for the first time. Most of these trials started with grassy weed and root disease pressures. These trials have consistently shown yield increases of wheat in 2013 of up to 1/ha, regardless of the yield of the continuous wheat benchmark. |
