The research, led by the Department of Agriculture and Food (DAFWA) and supported by the Grains Research and Development Corporation (GRDC), was presented at this year's Agribusiness Crop Updates... The wet seeding research results were obtained under trials led by DAFWA and the Kellerberrin Demonstration Group under the National Adaptation and Mitigation Initiative (NAMI) - a $4.9 million partnership between the Department of Agriculture, Fisheries and Forestry (DAFF) and the GRDC... The dry seeding guidelines were generated from a GRDC funded, dry seeding project involving the WA No-Tillage Farmers Association, CSIRO and DAFWA...

Study confirms frosts occurring later in WA.. New research has confirmed changes to frost patterns in the Western Australia grainbelt, with frosts occurring later in the year and increasing the risk of damage to maturing grain crops... Mr Crimp said the 'Understanding frost risk in a variable and changing climate' research project had also revealed that severe frost events in WA were more likely to occur when centres of 'ridging high pressure systems' were farther south.

Grain growers gearing up to sow crops are urged to resist any temptation to use below label rates for the newer pre-emergent herbicide Sakura (pyroxasulfone), with research highlighting the risks if rates are cut... Dr Busi said that in the trials, a ryegrass population initially susceptible to Sakura evolved resistance to it after only three generations of exposure to below label rates of Sakura ... "Our trials found that the use of below label rates of Sakura posed a high risk for the rapid development of herbicide resistance," he said...

Weeds compete against crops for valuable moisture, light and nutrients, but growers can take steps in coming weeks to help their wheat crops fight back and stop the weeds winning... Mr Newman said the seed size of wheat varieties varied considerably and growers should take this into account when calculating seeding rates and plant density... "In the eighth year of using this practice, these growers had no ryegrass in their focus paddocks and have averaged fewer than 1.5 ryegrass plants per square metre ever since," Mr Newman said...
