The Agricultural Potential Of Owingup Swamp. 1. Soil Survey Of Owingup Swamp. 2. Comparison Of Owingup And Grasmere Swamps, L T. Jones, C V. Malcolm, James P. Fallon, Department Of Agriculture And Food, Western Australia
Technical Bulletins
The two swamps, Owingup and Grasmere are practically identical with regard to soil conditions. Grasmere swamp however has been cleared and used for agriculture for some 60 years while Owingup swamp is as yet unalientated. Soils on both swamps consist of mainly organic diatomaceous clay. Findings of the survey indicate that some 2000 acres at Owingup swamp would be suitable for vegetable growing following clearing and draining.

Shed Lambing In The Esperance Environment, T Marshall, F. F. Dixon
Shed Lambing In The Esperance Environment, T Marshall, F. F. Dixon
Journal of the Department of Agriculture, Western Australia, Series 4
Neonatal lamb mortality is often high in Western Australia and losses as high as 33 per cent, have been recorded on private properties in the Esperance area. Surveys by Western Australian Department of Agriculture officers have indicated that more than threequarters of such lamb deaths occur after birth. About half these deaths result from the combined effects of weather and mismothering.
Work in Victoria has indicated that lamb mortality may be reduced by intensive lambing systems such as shedding and this trial was established to see if shedding could reduce lamb mortality in the Esperance environment.

Linseed Production Survey : Esperance, 1968, R J. Guyton
Journal of the Department of Agriculture, Western Australia, Series 4
A SURVEY conducted after the 1967 linseed season found that although most farmers understood the requirements of linseed growing there were several crop failures. These were associated with time of planting, soil type and insect control measures.
The Esperance district office of the Department of Agriculture conducted a second survey during December, 1968 and January, 1969

Water Storage Has Not Kept Pace With Stock Numbers : South Stirling Survey Finding, A L. Prout
Journal of the Department of Agriculture, Western Australia, Series 4
RESULTS of a survey on water storage capacity in the South Stirlings area indicate that farm water storage has not kept pace with increased clearing and stock numbers.
This has resulted in many farmers requesting advice on water conservation projects following two consecutive years of low rainfall runoff.
The Long Term Effects Of Frequent Cropping, Stanley Thomas Smith
The Long Term Effects Of Frequent Cropping, Stanley Thomas Smith
Journal of the Department of Agriculture, Western Australia, Series 4
AGRICULTURALLY speaking, few Western Australian soils are more than 50 years old. We have the responsibility of preserving them for farming—not for one man's lifetime, but for centuries.
The aim of this article is to demonstrate that cropping and cultural practices do have some effects on the soil, and that these effects should be considered when choosing a farm rotation.

Wildflowers Of The Stirling Range, Alexander S. George
Journal of the Department of Agriculture, Western Australia, Series 4
TWO hundred miles south-east of Perth, the Stirling Range rises abruptly from the surrounding plain. About forty miles long, it is a line of semi-isolated hills, rather than a continuous block.
There are many intriguing plants of diverse colour and form. Well over 400 species are known from the Range. A number of these are found no-where else, and some are restricted to one mountain.

PRACTICALLY all broadleaved weeds found in cereals can now be killed with herbicides and with most, the farmer has a choice of chemicals.
Two more new products are now available and these have several advantages over other herbicides.
The Effect Of A Large Reservoir On Local Government Revenue And Expenditure, Clyde T. Bates
The Effect Of A Large Reservoir On Local Government Revenue And Expenditure, Clyde T. Bates
KWRRI Research Reports
Development of a large multi-purpose reservoir within the area of their jurisdiction may affect property ta.x revenue and expenditure of county governments and school districts. Privately owned land sold to a federally sponsored reservoir is not subject to property taxes because of the doctrine of intergovernmental immunity. Local officials often assume that this loss of assessment will reduce their tax revenue and thereby their fiscal ability to provide an acceptable level of government services. They may also expect the influx of construction workers or the disruption of existing facilities to increase the cost of providing these services. The study approaches …
Pasture Establishment In The Wheatbelt, M L. Poole
Pasture Establishment In The Wheatbelt, M L. Poole
Journal of the Department of Agriculture, Western Australia, Series 4
The value of legume based wheatbelt pastures is so great that considerable care is warranted during their establishment. Without such care patchy establishment or even complete failure is likely to occur.
IN THE WHEATBELT too many farmers still put less effort into their seeding of pasture species than their seeding of crops.
This may be because both compete for the farmer's time in the busy seeding period and it is the cereal crop which possesses the obvious cash value.
However, the total value of a good pasture has to be assessed over a period of several years because of its …
Continuous Cropping Trials, M G. Mason
Continuous Cropping Trials, M G. Mason
Experimental Summaries - Plant Research
The aims of the trials at Binnu, Chapman, Wongan Hills, Avondale and Merredin were:
- To determine whether the application of nitgrogen and fertilisers can maintain yields under a "continuous cropping" system
- To compare the merits of three sources of nitrogen for this purpose.
- To determine the maintenance dressing of superphosphate under this system and the need for supplementary fertilisers.
Trial 61A2
There have been no great problems with this trial. for a number of years the plots have required chemical spraying to control wild oats which had built up. In 1968 and 1969 some plots were soil sampled to determine …

Journal of the Department of Agriculture, Western Australia, Series 4
MANY public bodies are making regular use of herbicides to create firebreaks. In Western Australia more than $200,000 is being spent on chemicals each year to protect property from fire.
In many situations where the buildings and property are of great value, the cost of the chemical becomes insignificant.

Nitrogen Use On First Crops After Legume Pasture, M G. Mason
Nitrogen Use On First Crops After Legume Pasture, M G. Mason
Experimental Summaries - Plant Research
Apart from the normal factors affecting response of cereals to nitrogen fertilizers, i.e. length of growing season, rainfall, soil type etc, there are other factors which affect the response after a legume pasture. these factors include length of the previous legume phase and how good was the stand of legumes. Unfortunately for most of the trials in the past, involving the use of nitrogen on first crops after legumes, this information is not available.

Experimental Summaries - Plant Research
No meaningful conclusions can be drawn until the multiple regression analysis comparing soil and plant parameters with level of response has been completed. Similarly it is extremely dangerious to extrapolate results obtained from any one experiement in a particular district to the general farm situation. In addition these results represent only 1 rather atypical season and so need to be verified by additional calibration trials. in 1973 (40) and 1974 (20).

Time Of Application Of Solid Nitrogen Fertilisers., M G. Mason
Experimental Summaries - Plant Research
The current recommendations for time of application of soild nitrogen fertilisers such as urea, ammonium nitrate and sulphate of ammonia are:
Zone A: These fertilisers should be applied as close to seeding as possible.
Zone B: As for zone A except on very sandy soils which are very prone to leaching, where application can be delayed 2-3 weeks.
Zone C: Applications should be delayed about 3 weeks after seeding.
