Time to lime trial 96GE8 – Alan Desmond (now Tim Critch) MullewaIn the mid 1990’s, DAFWA established a series of lime demonstrations sites across the WA wheatbelt, to highlight the importance of managing soil acidity. This trial is one of the series, which had a very simple design (0, 1 and 2t/ha applied, in 3 replicates). The rationale was to use farmer equipment, to enable larger areas to be treated differently, and ultimately provide extension opportunities across the WA wheatbelt. |
