Aims

To compare the performance of 3 seeding systems and 2 nutrition strategies. This is a rotation trial to assess the longer term effects of seeding systems and higher fertiliser input systems.

Key messages
  • There was no significant difference between sowing systems or level of nutrition on grain yield.
  • Levels of brome grass were higher under the early sowing no-till plots and annual ryegrass was lower in the disc system.
  • There is very little difference in long term gross margin between seeding system or level of nutrition.
