Barley varieties and agronomy locations
Aims

To report on barley variety and agronomy trials conducted at many of the CWFS sites.

Key messages
  • Barley trials have been conducted at many of the CWFS regional sites over the last three years.
  • Barley is a valuable rotation crop as it is not susceptible to many wheat foliar diseases (yellow spot, stripe rust, septoria), suffers less yield loss from root diseases, and competes well with weeds.
  • Schooner and Gairdner are the preferred malting varieties in central NSW. Schooner generally achieves better quality in the lower rainfall parts of the cropping belt
