Trial location(s) Curyo, VIC
Sowing time x row space, LRZ Southern Mallee (Curyo), Victoria locations
Aims
  • To investigate the adaptability of a range of field pea varieties and breeding lines to wider row
    spacing’s sown inter-row in to standing stubble compared with conventional cropping systems
    (narrow row spacing with slashed stubble).
  • The interaction sowing times is also compared.
Key messages
  • Similar to lentils it is important to interpret the grain yield results with caution as it was
    demonstrated that yield loss due to extreme rainfall events was between 0% and 55%.
