Development of a strand medic cultivar resistant to powdery mildew (S1213)
A new medic variety was bred and developed for commercial release in 2019.
Mould of faba bean seed affecting seed quality and meeting export standards (S1203)
The effect on common agronomic practices on field mould was studied in a range of varieties across South Australia.
Improving Canola Establishment (S1113)
Trials were conducted comparing sowing time, depth, rate and seed size on four sites on the lower and upper Eyre Peninsula over three years.
Genetic characterisation and exploitation of heat stress tolerant wheat germplasm (AGT0311)
Field studies, controlled environment trials and genetic analyses were performed to better understand heat stress tolerance and provide information to help breeders develop new heat tolerant varieties.
Impact of seeding time and Pratylenchus neglectus on Rhizoctonia fungicide yield responses (SARDI215)
This project studied the effect of time of sowing and levels of the root lesion nematode Pratylenchus neglectus on wheat and barley crop responses to Uniform® fungicide in a paddock with high Rhizoctonia levels at Wilkawatt in 2015.
Field trials to assess the efficacy of farm practices associated with fungicide control of Rhizoctonia (S315)
A range of disc seeder configurations were compared to knife points for fungicide control of Rhizoctonia at three sites in the Murray Mallee in 2014 and 2015.
Silverleaf nightshade – protecting clean farms and reducing SA yield losses (PIRSA113)
Silverleaf nightshade biology and management research was conducted at Keith and Warnertown along with experiments at Cavan and Edinburgh.
Hart advanced cropping systems and stubble handling (H113)
The Hart long-term cropping systems trial was upgraded in this research period to include stripper-front harvesting with disc seeding. A second site looked at the stubble handling ability of these seeding systems at different stubble heights. Seeding systems were compared across lentils, barley and wheat, with pre-emergent herbicides also included in the cereals.
