Regional crown rot management – TamarangCrown rot (CR) caused predominantly by the fungus Fusarium pseudograminearum (Fp), remains a major constraint to winter cereal production in the northern grains region. Cereal varieties differ in their resistance to crown rot, which can have a significant affect on their relative yield in the presence of this disease. This experiment was one of 11 conducted by NSW DPI in 2016 across central/northern NSW extending into southern Qld; to examine the effects from crown rot on the yield and quality of four barley, three durum and 13 bread wheat varieties. Varieties (20) • Four barley varieties: CommanderA, CompassA, La TrobeA and SpartacusA. • Three durum varieties: JandaroiA and LillaroiA plus the numbered line 190873. • Thirteen bread wheat varieties: EGA GregoryA, LRPB FlankerA, BeckomA, CoolahA, SunmateA, LRPB LancerA, LRPB ReliantA, LRPB GauntletA, LRPB SpitfireA, MitchA, SuntopA and SunguardA; (listed in order of increasing resistance to crown rot) plus one numbered line LPB12-0494 |

Northern NSW pulse agronomy project - faba bean density experiments 2015To report on the outcomes of a series of faba bean variety × density experiments across northern NSW. The 2015 season was characterised by severe frost events, episodic cold weather during flowering and terminal drought during grain filling. These seasonal conditions severely affected crop performance, reducing the potential yield of faba beans across most areas of the northern NSW cropping zone. The Northern Pulse Agronomy Initiative (NPAI; Winter Pulse) project conducted a range of experiments covering a number of different agronomic themes in 2015. This paper reports on the outcomes of a series of faba bean variety × density experiments across northern NSW. |
