Manganese response in barley at Wharminda locations
Aims
  • To lookiat Mn application only to unravel this issue of potential yield increase in response to added Mn in combination with N in an above average growing season rainfall year.
Key messages
  • In a below average rainfall year there was no response to manganese (Mn) in barley on a deep sand at Wharminda.
