Aims
How will the barley and wheat perform side by side after a serradella phase?
How much N do we need to apply to each crop type after a serradella phase, and which is the most profitable?
Will there be Imazethapyr residue from April 2017, and will it affect the non-CL® variety?
Key messages
Both barley varieties out yielded wheat by approximately 1000kg/ha in all treatments
Barley yields responded to the highest rate of early post emergent nitrogen (75kgN/ha) with wheat yields plateauing at the 50kgN/ha rate
Ryegrass biomass was two to three times higher in wheat than barley, and this may have significantly reduced wheat yield

Growing wheat and barley after serradella, does extra nitrogen help?
