A field experiment was conducted at Dirnaseer in 2021 to evaluate the differences between wheat and barley for phenology, grain yield and quality in response to sowing time. This paper presents the results and discusses the influence of sowing date on the phenology, grain yield and quality for 24 wheat and 12 barley varieties.

1. Manage subsoil acidity through innovative amelioration methods that will increase productivity, profitability and sustainability

2. Study soil processes, such as the changes in soil chemical, physical and biological properties under vigorous soil amelioration techniques over the longer term.
 

To test the hypothesis that less fertiliser P is required to acheive maximum grain yield if a mid-maturing variety (Hyola 559TT) is sown earlier than the traditional date of 25 April.

To address the problem of subsoil acidification, a long-term field experiment was established in 2016. The objectives were to:
• manage subsurface soil acidity through innovative amelioration methods that will increase productivity, profitability and sustainability
• study soil processes, such as changes in soil chemical, physical and biological properties over the long term.

This paper presents results from the Harefield site (southern NSW) in 2020 and discusses the influence of sowing date (SD) on the phenology and grain yield responses of a core set of 36 wheat genotypes.

The primary objective of PGRs is to decrease plant height to reduce lodging, however, this can also indirectly increase grain yield. If the crop is not lodged, the effect of PGR application on yield is more variable. The influence of varying levels of N and PGR timing on the grain yield of four elite barley cultivars, including the recently released RGT PlanetA, was investigated at Marrar in 2017.
