In a high yield potential season, seeding wheat at 60kg/ha gave a higher yield and gross margin than seeding at 30kg/ha; but there was no further benefit in going to 90kg/ha.

Wheat agronomy research in 2014 at Eneabba aimed to determine how management with foliar fungicide and an in-furrow fungicide influenced the profitability of long season wheat varieties with an ear

Seed of Roundup ready (RR) and hybrid varieties can be up to 30 times more expensive than retained seed of open pollinated (OP) triazine tolerant (TT) varieties, so getting the seed rate right is e

This trial looked at plant density in low rainfall canola.

This trial looked at plant density response of canola in the medium rainfall area of Katanning.

This trial looked at the impact of plant density response of canola in medium rainfall at Pingrup.

Most canola had acceptable losses prior to harvest, even with delayed harvest. The greatest proportion of losses occurred at harvest.

Canola grown in wide rows (44-60cm) in the northern region yielded well enough compared to narrow rows (22-30cm) to consider this sowing option.

The Tactical Break Crop Agronomy project has many canola agronomy trials each year.
