Episode description
Trials undertaken on the Riverine Plains testing early sowing times for both spring and winter wheat varieties have produced some interesting results, particularly around moisture requirements at sowing.
At the other end of the season, it’s all about avoiding the frost window during flowering and also spreading out flowering dates.
On this podcast FAR Australia researcher Michael Straight talks about the trials which compared the performance of common winter and spring varieties grown on the Riverine Plains.
