The objectives of this project are to quantify the size and efficiency of response to mid-row banded nitrogen in irrigation systems within the southern Riverina of Australia. This will include the assessment of the effect of mid-row banded N on growth, yield and apparent nitrogen recovery efficiency (ANRE), of wheat as compared to the current best-practice method of topdressing at GS31 and the control.

Another key objective of this project is to assess the loss of banded nitrogen during waterlogging events to determine if denitrification losses are reduced in banded nitrogen and compared to topdressed nitrogen and the control.
