Yield response of wheat to differing nitrogen rates and timings under Tasmanian conditions locations
Aims

 To further test the response of different wheat varieties to varying rates and timings of Nitrogen applications. 

Key messages
  • Trojan apparently responded better to 3 Nitrogen applications at GS 31, 33 & 37.
  • Revenue yielded most will nil extra Nitrogen, but not significantly better than with 100kg applied urea.
  • Higher Nitrogen late increased grain protein across all varieties as expected • Revenue expressed reduced yields at Urea application rates higher than 200kg/Ha.
