Cobbler canola was sown @ 5 kg/ha with MAP @ 150 kg/ha, and urea @ 70 kg/ha was broadcast shortly after germination. |
| Herbicide |
The trial area received 1.5 L/ha of Roundup®, 1 L/ha of Treflan® and 80 mL/ha Hammer® pre seeding; 0.9 L/ha of Lorsban® post sowing and 500 mL/ha of Astound® and 400 g/ha of Achieve® later in the season. The canola plots also received 1.5 L/ ha of atrazine and 200 mL/ha of Lontrel®. |

Mouse damage The trial was sown again on 7 June 2010 into reasonable moisture but mice damage resulted in the cereal plots being sprayed out and resown on 29 June. These plots were also harrowed to remove the furrows and make it harder for mice to find the grain. |
