Active stubble management to enhance residue breakdown and subsequent crop management

To present results from the large plot focus farm trials of the Maintaining profitable farming systems with retained stubble in the Riverine Plains region project, which where to

  • investigate, demonstrate and extend cultural practices that will assist growers to adopt no-till stubble retention (NTSR) in medium and higher-rainfall environments;
  • build on findings from the previous Riverine Plains Inc. Water Use Efficiency (WUE) project; and
  • extend the frontier of agronomic knowledge for crops grown in NTSR systems.

In-paddock variability — a snapshot and lessons learnt

The aims of the PA component of the GRDC Stubble project were to:

• deliver a pilot project to understand how soil parameters, including PAW, vary across a paddock and understand
whether current PA datasets can correlate with PAW

• connect variations in soil moisture with nitrogen supply

• demonstrate the use of NDVI to inform variable rate applications of nitrogen

• determine the economic value of variable rate nitrogen application across paddocks, based on zones

Optimising sulphur and nitrogen nutrition in canola

This project aims to determine if nitrogen supply is limiting uptake of sulphur in canola crops grown in the Riverine Plains region and whether sulphur uptake and yield is increased in canola when nitrogen is available in non-limiting quantities.
The 2017 project trial assessed the response to nitrogen and sulphur in canola crops of the Riverine Plains by determining:
• the influence of nitrogen and sulphur application on canola tissue content, yield and oil
• the fluctuation in nitrogen and sulphur content and nitrogen:sulphur ratio in the plant from stem elongation (GS31) to harvest (GS99)
• the optimum available soil nitrogen level for the region’s canola crops at varying sulphur application rates.
