The AHRI Agronomy team has done extensive work looking at crop competition in hybrid and open-pollinated canola. Project Lead, Dr Mike Ashworth, discusses the findings on ideal canola seeding rate, variety, row spacing and seed size on the @WeedSmartAU podcast 🎙️⤵️
On the podcast, we talk about the benefits of hybrid canola. We hear from AHRI Agronomy Lead, Dr Mike Ashworth (@Mike_AHRI), who has done research in this space, as well as Wagga Wagga grower, Michael Molloy, who grows Clearfield canola. Take a listen 🎧 https://t.co/PB5wkXnhWk

Our Agronomy team investigated the effect of 7 cropping rotations in high-weed-pressure fields over 3 years 🌱 Results show that a single species pasture legume, e.g. serradella, can make a large dent in the annual ryegrass seed bank. Results so far ➡️ https://t.co/x8pIbkY5to

I’ll be there talking about water quality, come and find us @AHRI_Team
Do you know what to look for when measuring your farm water's pH and turbidity? Ask the @CWSS_UWA @GGA_WA SW WA Hub #watersmart dams & water quality teams at @DowerinFieldDay. Bring a water sample for testing, and test your knowledge to win a YETI esky. 📸@angieroephotography
